Talking Rally Stripes Finally

Good afternoon all. Finally got my Rally Stripes on. Long wait, well worth it. ... Unfortunately the stripes look much darker red then they are onmy blackberry camera. They are actually a match for the SS red.

Edit: Pilot error, my Blackberry was on text for the pics, these show the true colour...

They Look Good!
Did you do them yourself?
Me personally, I would have put the stripes over the scoops rather than under them.
But as long as your Happy with the way it turned out that's Great!
Enjoy!

I think they look great just the way you did them, I makes the scoops really pop out at you

Well you said they were going on this week. Glad to see your happy with them, look pretty sharp. Looks like it was a fair amount of work cutting to the scoops as tight as they did. I like that they don't go over the roof. I altered the red a touch for the fun of it, I know it's not the true red you have. just trying to bring it online till you post proper photo's

I like the colors! Cant wait to see em in person man! Just a thought the front end might match up better if you moved the scoops inline with the stripes. I mean its personal preference it just caught me off guard. Still, I like it. Has almost A pontiac look to the hood now.

Thanks... I had them installed by the guy who does it for GM in these parts...We talked about putting them over, just didn't look right to us... Took 3 1/2 hours, he did a great install...

Thanks Greg... Wish I could Photoshop, that is really close to their colour...... Just posted some up-date pics with the real colour... Cutting around the scoops took him an hour, he is very good at what he does...We were in agreement that with a sunroof it looks cleaner without the roof done...
