Ghost stripes?
Hey guys. I have 96' Z thats patriot red, 18" z06 rims. Im getting a 4inch cowl hood. And well sence stripes are pretty common on a camaro here in my town and ghost flames are starting to be seen alot more. What about ghost stripes? Ive never seen this on a car. What are your guys thoughts on this?

By definition, I don't think it'll work. You get "ghost" stripes by the way they are painted on... you can barely see them from certain angles but can see them better from other angles. With vinyl, you can't get this effect.
I suppose you could do stripes that closely match the color of the car so they aren't all that noticeable?
Well anyway, what exactly do you mean by ghost stripes? Maybe I'm missing what you are trying to do?

Well, I'd love to send some pics. However, I'm on the road right now for business, so I can't get them till at least Friday. Sorry guys. They look good, but you really can't see them till you're up close on the car. Could just be the way they are done though. Anyways, I'll get those pics on Fri or Sat.

Thanks birdie.
Yeah i want to paint them on. I was thinking maby make it a tad more noticable than a ghost though not much more darker but you know. In a couple days im going to talk with some painters to see how much this stuff would cost and how long it would take.

I've been planning this for a long time...DAMN, thought I was being original for once, lol.
Never seen it done on a 4th Gen (until now, thanks Birdie). I got the idea from a Shelby Cobra that was blue with dark blue ghost stripes...very interesting color choice, but VERY nice finished look!
It'll be a while before I get around to doing this, as I'll be painting the car an ENTIRELY different color, so I want the motor out so the engine bay matches and all. Plus...it's just gonna be EXPENSIVE!!!
