175,000 miles, 18 MPG around my area over 32 on the open road, 3rd and most favorite Corvette I love this car! I may get another one with under 50K miles just to put in the garage at some point |thumb|

Question: What do you folks think about putting GS stripes on the LF fender of a totally factory stock unmodified (for now) Green, Base 1996 Z51 LT4 Coupe?

I put a black GS stripe kit on my 96 CE.  I think it looks way cool!  It kind of reminds me of my '67 ragtop 427, it was silver with the blck stripe down the middle.

Bottom line, what ever floats your boat, dude.

What Windrider said. Personally, I (being a fellow LT-4 owner) would prefer to keep it kinda' low-key. I love surprising the Mustangs, Challengers, and occasional Camaro with my 20 year "old" stock Purple Corvette.

I agree with Phat98- "Sleeper" is the way to go!

On a factory green car, I was thinking red or white. Black would be more subttle but they are there to be seen not that we use them for intended reason tho
