Is it a challenge to apply side stripes on a 69 ss? I have a light blue metallic 69 and think it would look awesome with the SS stripes.
Should i go black or white? AND can i do it myself?

Definitely go black so the stripe can be seen.
As far as DIY, it could be a challenge. I personally would not try it myself, having never done it before.

I just laided em out and had em painted on the wifes wagon. See pics under 'Our Cars' below. I used the basic pattern for the 70SS stripes and then hand taped the hood and let the paint fly. They look awsome.

Once you go black.... :D
Definitely black stripes! We'll be putting them on my '69 in a couple months.

personally I plan on doing something with a marble look. Black and blue marble would look killer. I may go with stripes down the hood not sure but I know I want to be different but nice looking. graemlins/thumbsup.gif

I think i will go black (i would do white IF i wasnt going to put a black vinyl top on it).
Do they just stick on? I am pretty sure i could do it...
