Default Monte Carlo Decal Kits.

I found a website that has a whole bunch of different decals for the monte carlo and I wanted to get some opinions. I have a red 2003 monte carlo ss with the black pin stripes down the side and I am not a fan of them at all. I was thinking of putting on the checkered flag decals and rally stripes. Should I do both the rally stripes or just the checkered flag? Heres the link to the kits take a look and tell me what you think. Chevrolet - Chevrolet Camaro, Chevrolet Decals, Chevrolet Astro, Chevrolet Avalanche, Chevrolet Blazer, Chevrolet Cavalier, Chevrolet Cobalt, Chevrolet Colorado, Chevrolet Corvette, Chevrolet Express Van, Chevrolet HHR, Chevrolet Impala, Chevrolet Mo

It would look great with either, or, I have not seen anyone with both. Personally I would do both, it may be a deal breaker on color. If you get the right placement and color combination, it would look great. IMO, but to be a purist, just do one, either the flags or the stripes.

I agree one or the other. I think both would be too much.

Auto Trim Design are the ones that did my Bud Chev! They can make anything if you give them enough time and money. It questionable if they were trademark infringing, but they did it! Wild vinyl is a cheap way to go from mundane to awesome fast

I do not use automatic car washes, but it is probably durable enough to use. I had the car decaled 4 years ago and it has not peeled or blistered. Some of the black "printed" parts are fading just a tiny bit, not much. It has been exposed to high heat and extreme cold. When I got it done I was given the option of cheaper or better vinyl and the choice I made is obvious. Some parts, like the hood, are done in multi-layers. The multi-layed stuff is actually holding up the best

i like the lemans style hash marks, never really thought about putting any graphics on my black 06 but they seem kind of neat.

or maybe the hood and trunk stripes.

flat black stripes on a black car... now im starting to think
