Anyone add Rally Stripes?

[wrenchmantee]

There is a company offering a complete rally stripe kit. Was thinking of adding white stripes on mine. Any thoughts

I came across this site a while back...http://www.grandsportregistry.com/store.htm
That's a really sweet Vette you've got there....as is!!

 

[wrenchmantee]

Thanks, I like it pretty good!

 

[Epimax]

I really, really like those wheels! I may have to move new wheels up on the wish list!

 

[wrenchmantee]

Man, I searched & searched for wheels...I didn't want the same old vette wheels. I went to www.wheelmax.com and they did not even list corvettes in the appilcation charts. So, I started doing some research and found the Camaro has the same bolt pattern and the same hub diam. so, I used the 93' Camaro app. w/45mm offset.Long story short I got wheels, tires, m&b, shipped for $1258.00....NO S---!

 

[Epimax]

Wow!!! That is a Great Deal! I've got a set of ZR1 wheels on my '93, and I've been happy with them, but I'm about ready to change it up a little and that is the look I was after! I never would have thought to check the Camaro applications. Great Idea!
Thank you so much for the link/info!!

How are things down in La? I've been here in NC since 1988, but I was born and raised in La. We get down there every few years to visit, and Man, I sure could go for some crawfish about now.

 

[wrenchmantee]

Well sha, Dem crawdads are already gettin big yea! I'm da real thing...Cajun AKA coonass...I live right out of Marksville. I just had some bodin for lunch. Ya'll come home, Get away from dem yankies!

 

[Epimax]

Aw Man...Bodin...Man, I haven't had any of that in years..(Not the REAL thing, anyway!) My wife is from La too, and she cooks up a mean gumbo, da etouffee, and we break out the crawfish pie every chance we get! Dem peoples here don't know whut spicy food be!! We try to educate them every chance we get!

I reckon the crawfish festival will be coming around before long in Breaux Bridge....Man, I'd love to be there for that this year....and how 'bout them Tigers! Geaux LSU!

Hey, Did you see my stereo? I built this from scratch..

 

[RiksRare93]

This will kinda show you what it would look like.
Here is a pic of my 93 that someone photoshopped a GS stripe onto it...:cool
I'm considering doing this in the future.
It would go well with the interior and wheels.

[Epimax]

I did indeed! That is one awesome system you have there! Sweet

Rik... very nice!

 

[wrenchmantee]

That's a nice example of a striped c4...Thanks, I've been kickin' around getting a kit.

I had my C4 striped a few years ago like a reverse GS. Mines all paint so it will be a lot more difficult to change back it anyone ever wants to do that.

I ended the stripe on top of the nose instead of going all the way to the radiator inlet. The stripe basically follows the dimensions of the '96 GS stripes after that and cross the roof and the rear (all the way to be bottom of the bumper). The hash marks are paint also.

STRIPE vs STRIPE(S)

For me 2 stripes are for 60's and 70's musclecars camaro 442 etc.

The single broad stripe that wraps around the entire car front to rear actually has some real Corvette Heritage and in my humble opinion looks waaaaaay better.:cool Love the look in Red and white above!!!!!!

 

[Sunstroked]

I like the way you ended the stripe on the nose. It looks better than taking it all the way down, in my opinion. Now of course it was an original GS, than by all means keep it original.

 

[puppyfang]

Stripes yes...

In the process of making my 1989 into a type of clone gs, I have the stripes ready, using the vinyl type as I may want sometime to take them off, also have the side markers, using gloss black for the stripes and burgandy for the markers as my color is charcoal, and it fits the theme with the gs wheels, even had a friend fabricate some emblems that are Grand Sport II for the sides... hope to have it done for the spring...too cold right now.. I like stripes but to each his own...

 

[wrenchmantee]

Got them in, put them on...What yall think?
