Default My GT1 Stripes from Vettestripes

Got my GT1 stripe kit installed today. Gloss black with gunmetal. Thanks to Redline Graphics in Houston for quick install.

Stripes look good on your car. And I like the other mods you've done. Where did you get the rear spoiler and is it just taped on or bolted?

Got the rear spoiler from C7 Carbon and it is bolted on.

I generally prefer a monochrome paint scheme but I have to say that your project turned out very nice indeed. Its a good look! Best wishes to you!

Looks great, all your mods and the colors/contrast really set it off. The paint looks so wet it is hard to see the stripes.

Where did you get side skirts? Do they fit well, reduce ground clearance at all?

The rear spoiler and side skirts are from C7 Carbon. The side skirts fit really well and they reduce ground clearance very little...maybe an inch.

Best looking stripes I've ever seen on a Vette. Till now I would never have considered stripes but now it's got me thinking. Very nice looking car. Congrats.

Ricky, I really like your rear spoiler. I went to the site to look at their products.

Did you have to drill holes to mount the spoiler? Instructions good?

Great looking car.

Yes had to drill 4 holes. I don't think they provided any instructions but I did get all the mounting hardware. If you do a search there are a couple of good threads on mounting which I followed. Very easy 30-45 min project.

Looks good. The only thing I would suggest is a black splitter to go with the stripes and other black accents.
