Mike at vettestripes.com is great to deal with. I would not want to do a dry install personally. I installed my stripes with no problems. I recommend vettestripes if you are interested in whole body stripe kits. If all you want is hash marks you can get them from MidAmerica.

I have these thin stripes on mine. They look great and more like they came equipped that way when they were new.

What color is your car? Color makes a difference when selecting the stripe pattern to use I believe.

My car is white and I used the black stripe that says Corvette cut into them that shows the car color through the cutouts and put them on each side of the raised portion of the hood starting back at the windshield edge of the hood and added a red stripe around them that carries it to the end of the raised area of the hood at the front end. Then I added black and red parallel stripes down the sides of the car between the mirrors and the door handles and up and over the spoiler at the back.
My car has a red and black interior.

Car is red but I'm looking at the large hood stripes, 2 with a pinstripe that cover the the raised area on hood, part of a stripe package but only doing the hood not roof and rear of car, talked to vette stripes and they will sell hood stripes separate
