Default Fender stripes
I am looking into slapping the Fender stripes on my Z. All the decals I have seen in pics or in person come in glossy vinyl but has anybody been able to find Flat Black vinyl stripes? Or should I just head to a body shop?

Also, If anybody wants to post pics of MY Z's with just Fender stripes that would be sweet.

Thanks in advance

Yeah, I was thinking about stopping by a vinyl shop and seeing if I could just pick up some scraps and see what it looks like.

There are thousands of pictures of C5 Z06's here http://www.fastcoolcars.com/C5-Z06-01.htm, maybe you can find some pictures of the stripes on a few Z's there.

I would suggest contacting Corvette Stripes and tell them what you want. I'll bet they'd be willing to work with you to get you what you want.
