Solid first post... In my opinion hood stripes look best on dodge neons, and other cars of it's class... However I am sure you can modify some of those brands to make them fit.

Good god man please don't

If you still insist a vinyl is your best option so you could remove it after you realize how bad it looks

Will look awful.
You can find vinyl racing stores online.
try e'm,they can be removed.
The hoods the 350's are a bit boring.
Stripes are not the way to go.
I installed finned aluminum vents(operational)
on my hood(not a easy install).Very subtle
and go nicely with the car.

Find a shop that does vinyl and have them cut and apply a stripe for you. Not that complicated.

Not too fond of these either.
I'd advise not to do this.

Do you mean something like the blue stripes on the hood:

If so, Justin Good at Redline Designs did those for my old roadster. If you do vinyl, it's easy to try things like that out without spending a fortune, and then take them off if you decide you don't like it. Don't let folks that won't try new things talk you out of playing with your own car. Other than totaling your car, everything you do can be changed if you don't like it.

You guys should have known that once a redneck ricer like me could afford a Z, that it was time to move on to the next platform.

+1. The heritage of the Z is being shat on more and more every day as it transitions into a ricer $hit box.

I guess I don't understand why out is bad for people to be different ands try new things to make their cars "their own". I understand not using inferior components, but if the guy is looking to try out some things with vinyl to personalize his car, that are easily changed I'd he doesn't like it... Or he may love it even though others don't.

The point is, he didn't come in for opinions, just a source for where to buy them.

OP, please see the contact info that I provided earlier.
