Stripes ?
I have a torch red Z and I'm contiplating white stripes, such as or similar to the racing stripes offered by Vette stripes.
I was wondering if anyone has taken on such an idea and if you're happy with the results ?

Depending on the style of the stripes, they can look really good on a C5. If you like them, go for it. I had stripes on my '00 and really liked the look.

This is the wifes new 2015 Mustang GT. We ordered the stripes even before receiving the car. The stripes are what make this car in my opinion.
I put the hash marks on my C5 last year and get a ton of compliments on them.
Stripes are good!!!!!!!

I think the C5 would look great with stripes, I would go for black on a red car but that's just me. The Red/White combo looks great as well (especially on Ford GT's)
I don't know if you play video games but Forza Motorsport has a mode you can try out different vinyl setups on a Corvette C5 (sizes/shapes etc...), it's a good way to pre visualize if google images fails ya.

The stripes and narrow headlights on that Mustang make it look mean and NASTY.
Better than those wide white stripes on the 'vette, either all the way down the center or on the front fenders, IMO. I would go with something a little more subtle.

No stripes for me & while we are at it, body color scoops too!
