That's a good question. D90 striping was included with SS equipment. I don't believe we have a known stripe delete example in the CRG db. Fisher Body had no involvement with the D90 stripe so it would not have affected the paint code.

Joe Oldham's famous black Camaro SS was regularly featured in the east coast pulp car mags back in the day. Motion also used it in their ads. He wrote an editorial about the difficulty he had ordering what he wanted: black, no D90 stripe. Chevy refused and it was delivered with the striping. He later removed the striping. Vintage pics show it both ways.
