Getting ready to order a 2015 Z51 - 2LT coupe. BLADE SILVER, black 19/20 wheels, red calipers, red interior. With the C/F mirrors/spoiler/badges. Pretty much sold on the stinger hood, but saw several pics with the C/F Full Length Dual Racing Stripe. Just wondering if the full length stripes is top over the top, too much, or too busy? In some pics they looked good with this color. It's not like they will be red or orange, just wondering which would look better on the exact color and optioned car? Also, if the transparent roof is selected - can the full length stripes still be selected on the transparent roof?
Thanks for your input.
My thoughts were much the same as the other opinions here. Found this car on the dealer lot and my thought was get it off and we will buy it, but now I'm not sure. It ties in the rear facia and top plus it covers a lot of orange peel

I actually went by Vandergriff Chevy just to see your car since it was the new color. Leave the stripes makes it really pop.
I chose the stinger hood and carbon flash badge option on my DSOM. I thought about doing the mirrors and spoiler too but decided against it. I like the mirrors and spoiler better with the body color.
You could put a wart on the nose of this car and it would still be beautiful. I went with the stinger on our TR convertible, but like both looks. Enjoy your new ride.

Good Luck
Seems to me that putting stripes over a transparent top kind of takes away the view.
I like both versions of stripes. But for my personal car I chose the stinger to keep a slightly lower profile. I have seen some color combinations that look great while not being quite as bold. Cyber Gray looks great on a dark color for example.
I opted for the carbon black Stinger stripe on my Velocity Yellow convertible. I also went for the mirrors and spoiler,black wheels and yellow calipers. I considered the full length stripes but thought that they would be too much for me.
It comes down to what look you want for your car,I guess. Some colors look better with full stripes than others,in my opinion. To each his own....none look bad.
