I gotta agree about that split in the front of the hockey stripe on the yellow car. That looks terrible! I really hope that's not factory.

The gap is where 2 body panels meet. But if I understood them correctly, they are currently not being done at the factory. There is a GM rep going dealer to dealer installing them.

Was hoping to hear that it was just a one-off trim shop job rather than a factory applied stripe. Thanks for the pics and info! I guess I should just shut up and be happy the Camaro is at least being built again... |

I would think that they'd be able to fix that so it's not so obvious...

Personal opinion; it needs a thinner stripe adjoining it on top or maybe on both sides like the '69s. Just has an unfinished look the way it is. Same for the hood panel.

Great coverage.
Even the Camaro car covers are cool.

Thanks for the pics! Sorry I couldn't be there, maybe someday.
![]() The silver COPO most be an early build, with no tach in the dash. No stripes, and a console shifted TH400, just like mine. ![]()

The day after picking it up, the camaro went to the body shop to make the gap better and add pinstripes.
I think it looks GREAT now! That's the way GM should be doing it ![]() ![]() ![]()
