Yes, they are the Gran Sport stripes as mentioned above... GM must like them because they also put them on the special edition "Ron Fellows C6"... although it looks to me like they put them on both fenders not just one as the Gran Sports had them....

I saw Chip Foose at a show in Dallas and he saw may car and told me that the stripe signified that a rookie driver was in the race...
Still dig it though.

Does the top of the fender count!

I know it's not the stripes you're looking for, I just love my paint job!

Perhapes to clear things up, the Grand Sport fender markings are refered to as Hash Marks. /:\

That's what I thought we were talking about. A lot of the fender stripes are too much. They end up distracting from the shape they are supposed to highlight. Maybe a thin pinstripe of a low-contrast color?

Do you have a picture showing more of the front fender stripe?

Default Ron Fellows ZO6 Hash

Saw these hash stripes from the Ron Fellows ZO6 and I just got to add these (sans the canadian hologram) to my C3 while she's still in the paint booth getting the final coats of can am white. I know some of you guys run hash stripes. Jake1 has an awesome hash treatment. What do you guys think of these?
I think painting them would be better than vinyl application.

Yep. I was waiting to see how long it took before someone properly named them.
