Those are "similar" to factory installed stripes. The white outside edge doesn't look factory to me.

The stripes you have on your car look great. Plenty of C7s have stripes on the car - it was a factory option. Although your stripes do not appear to be GM stripes.

Many use VetteStrips.com for their C7 stripping. Similar to OEM.

VetteStripes.com produces the below GM Full Length Racing Stripe 2 (as well as the Original w/o narrow
side stripes)

I think the Style 2 looks better and more finished !!!!!!!!!!!
GM full length dual racing stripe 2G GM full length dual racing stripe 2 M full length dual racing stripe 2
Yes, I'm implying that the EXPERT Designers at GM are not as talented with ALL
their ORIGINAL stripe ideas as they could have been.....

Keep in mind that vettestripe.com has relocated to Hawaii so I imagine shipping duration would be longer.

Please stop with all this sexy striping. I just sold my Stingray (NRB, silver stripes) and I've been trying so hard not to relapse but these pictures are feeding my stripe addiction. I promised my (new to me) Z06 that I would take my time and think about it instead of immediately putting stripes on it. I'm running out of willpower here, people! Please don't post any more pictures of beautiful striped Vettes!

It you got the extra bucks, look at painting the strips on.....they look very classy and not having a ridge on each side of the tape is great for not catching wax. I didn't do strips but i did do a painted on stinger.

Enjoy the ride.
