Default C7 Stinger Hood Stripes - Grill Blackout Kit - Roof bar Blackout kits

I am waiting on real photos of the stripes installed on the 7 sets I have already sold but in the mean time here is an idea of what it looks like. We had a learning curve and the first sets didn't fit, now we have the pattern perfected and am ready to move to full production!

So far the Black Metallic has been the hottest seller with flat black being 2nd but we can do most any color for a custom look and we are in the process of designing the full length racing stripes and other designs as well

I have decided to run the preorder price through the end of October and November 1st the price will go to the regular retail.

October Special - $175 including shipping! - Regular Price $225







Roof Bar Blackout kits $60


BEFORE





AFTER





Grill blackout kit - $25

We have cut flat black vinyl that installs over the chrome bar on the grill so the C7 won't look like it's wearing a set of metal braces

Coming Soon - Our goal is to have a similar stripe to these into production by the end of the month!!

Pre Order initial price will be $350 and regular price will be $425

We use only the top of the line vinyl that meets or exceeds OEM quality!!

I think this looks awesome! Is this the carbon flash? If so, how does the carbon flash on the stripe compare with the carbon flash that is on the heat extractor? What was the installation procedure? It looks like you slightly misaligned it at the heat extractor (looks like it's a little to the left)...or is it made that way? Thanks for any info!

Keep checking out the website....I'm working on getting more stripe kits available as well as getting our hydrographics pages up! If you need any C7 part hydro dipped we can handle any part on the car with our new tank!

It was my first time installing the stripe. I was just a little bit off. But its very hard to notice with the hood shut.

I think you did a great job! Most won't notice the offset at all. Any tips on DIY installation?

I also would like to see your response to the questions about the DIY installation. Are the stripes removable if I want to take it off down the road?

The DIY installation instructions are detailed on the website. Each person is different on what activities they can tackle....if you are handy and feel comfortable doing them I can walk you through it fairly easy, if you don't feel comfortable doing them then you probably already know your abilities and most any local tint shop seems to charge anywhere from $40-$50 to install. I am very happy to have you call me and have me spend a few minutes with you walking you through it. I have been a window tinter and vinyl installer for 17 years and I spent 2 years just training new installers....there are people who pick it up right away and there are people who if I spent a month with them would never pick it up lol.

As far as removing the decal later down the road, we change my dads out to a new custom stripe every few months to give his car a whole new look. If you are in an area that gets a decent amount of sun you can set the car outside and pull the decal off with very little work and it will not hurt the paint at all, if you have cold weather a heat gun or even a hair dryer will do the trick as well. If any adhesive is left you can get some 3m adhesive remover from any parts store and just wipe the reside right off. Here in Phoenix we really never need to use any adhesive remover.

If you ever need any phone assistance I am always available, if I don't answer it means I'm probably in the middle of an install myself but leave a message and as soon as I get my install to a point where I can leave it for a few minutes I will always call right back.

Thank you all so much for the inquiries and the purchases!!

I called and talked to you this morning about ordering a strip kit and you said you
was going to call me back after your install. I would like to order a kit and called you back but never got ahold of you. Please give me a call tomorrow.

Thanks

Billy

Billy, I will call you first thing in the morning, my cell phone battery died and I got your message when I got home which I think was after 9pm your time. I actually just cut your stripe that we discussed earlier so it's sitting here ready to ship

Or, if you are up, feel free to call me in the next 1/2 hour or so


Thanks!
