LoL Diablo, here I am huntin for a new pic, then I see, "white racing stripes".   I thought about it, when I was younger I wanted the stripes but seen too many like that, like it better without the stripes...

Sorry.  Just so used to the stripes on the blue cars.  Sometimes I feel my Z isn't complete without the stripes on it.

The Z28.. now that's  a great looking car.

I have a blue vette and considered stripes but I didn't want to look like a  Grand Sport wannabe.

Steve, get the split stripes and don't worry about it.

And you're right about the Z28.

props to you grayeagle. good to see a vette owner actually driving the car like it's meant to. too many old guys in AZ just buy the car for the looks and never open it up let alone take it to the track. :aok

Honestly, I don't think that vette needs them.  Looks clean as it is.  I'd say leave it as it is unless someone with a great idea for stripes can think of something cool.  I don't have photoshop, unfortunately.

Awesome!  I'll never understand why American cars get a bad rep to a lot of people.  The C5 and on Corvettes are some of the best performance values under the sun.  Even a lot of C4's like Steve's.  The wife and I are coming out to Arizona later this summer.  Of course I want to drive the Z out there but she wants to fly.  :cry

I had a vette. The most fun car I have ever driven. I miss it. But with grandkids and great nieces and nephews to run around at times.....THe vette had to go for a while. Hopefully someday I'll get another.
