Well i have decided to do the following.

Ditch the windshield drop idea
I'm getting the short hockey stripes

I am also considering getting the side flags from www.camarographics.com as well, BUT i was thinking about getting them cut shorter and applying them behind the rear wheels instead of on the doors.....What do you all think?

between those 2, the checkered flags, but where they belong. They'd look funny behind the rear wheels. Hockey sticks sre just starting to become way overdone.

An important thing to remember is how many people in your local area have that look, who cares if a bunch of people on the net have the same kind of car as you.

It's all personal opinion. Who cares if you copy someone or if you aren't the only one around with them. The point is the ride. Does it boost your ego while driving with them on? If so, go for it. I personally love them, especially on the LT1's, not the LS1's so much. But that is my opinion. I think the flags look decent, but not on the rear end no. I tried being different from anyone also. That's why I did the fiberglass like I did. It might not be the best system....but I am pretty much the only one with the system set in the back like that. Plus, it was custom so it will never be copied 100%. Just things to keep in mind. Maybe in the hockey stripe you can etch out 350, or Z28. That way the color of your car would shine through the stripes. I think that would be sweet.
