Thumbs up

I think in a darker color that shows more contrast it would look really nice. Haven't seen any Z's with racing stripes yet so it would defientely stand out.

Do it yourself! It's not hard man. Get a spray bottle, fill it wilh warm water and add a little dish soap to it. Mix it up. Spray the car and get it nice and wet. Then wet the decal as you peel the backing off it. You will have lots of time to move it around. Use a soft squeegie to get out the wrinkles. Them let dry in the sun....


I've done a few vinyl installs.

I actually like it. The rear is just a little too small and while continuing down the back would probably be nice, I'd do it such that there's a "recess" around the emblem and license plate. It would give it a kind of custom look to it, rather than simply laying down the stripe, then bolting everyting over it.
