Re: bumble bee stripe

Summit sells a stripe with the chevy logo in it. It is pretty nice.

I was going to put it on my truck when I was going to build a Mopar 360 for it...... almost went to the dark side

Re: bumble bee stripe

How about the camaro stripe?

Horizontal on the front of the hood, down the fenders, and back to the wheel wells.

Re: bumble bee stripe

I have looked into all the muscle car paint schemes from back in the day and all the mopars have some nice paint schemes on them and the yenko style stripes look good too.

Re: bumble bee stripe

i don't really wanna run stripes down the lenght of the cab and the camaro front bumper strip would look out of place with my bumper, i hav a roll pan in the back an was thinking of doing the bumblebee strip to kinda break up the silver bed right behind the wheels, kinda like the one they did on the s-10 project on powerblock

Re: bumble bee stripe

There was someone on here that wraps vehicles for a living that had a hockey stripe on his white crew cab. I thought it looked really good, but can't remember the member name.

Re: bumble bee stripe

Why not do a "Yenko" stripe or the "Starke and Hutch" stripe. I think one would look just as bad as the other! I'd like to see just how far one could go with this!!! OH how about 24's and fuzzy Dice........
