Default Got my Z striped this week (pictures)

Hi,

after struggeling with several stripe variations I recently saw a picture of a black Z here in the forum, liked it and (kinda) copied the stripes
I just got the car back yesterday afer being in the shop for a week, the guys did an awesome job...(still has to be sandbuffed after a few weeks). When I came back it turned quite some heads on the freeway

Here are some photos of the result, hope you like it.

I generally don't like striping, but I think your set up looks terrific.

looks clean.

but personally, i just think it looks too GTS viper. (don't get me wrong, i love GTS vipers, but i think the C6Z look better solid) just my $0.02

It's a good look and what a difference when compared to your AVI.

I am not so sure about that license plate though.

They look okay. I'd like them more if they were spaced out a bit. I was hoping you misspelled "stripped", I really wanted to see some pics of a gutted Z
