Hockey Stripes On An 98-02 Trans Am

**1989gtablown632** · 10-16-2008, 08:18 PM

Hey Everyone, does anybody have of a set of black hockey stripes on a Pewtar or Silver Trans Am. I looked but could only find pics of them on camaros. It doesent seem like theres as much room on the front of the T/As but I was thinking about trying it. So Im asking does anyone know of or have any Pics? Thanks

Nobody? Someone has to have these on a T/A.

I think theres a good reason there isn't many people that have done it... because it will look like ass... it doesn't match the body curves or lines... don't do it...

If you want hockey stripes buy a camaro.

You sure you don't mean Blackbird Stripes? They look really good on a WS6

I actuall have them already heres a pic I just wanted to have somthing black along the sides and figured I would try somthing diffrent. Maybe Ill try doing a photoshop on it. Any other Ideas?

You could try some thin pin stripes? Or I think coloring the TransAm logo black would set it off nicely.

I just slapped hockey stripes on my z but I dont think they'd look to hot on a T/A

Here's mine

I've been trying to imagine what it would look like on your T/A based off Justin93's pic and it doesn't look good to me. Looks fine on the Z though.

Here's an idea though. Put the stripes on the wrong side of the car. Left on right and right on left. That way you will have the point facing forwards and the larger portion would bend around the rear wheel. It would certainly be different. And I think might look pretty good on your T/A too. IMO

You have the BB stripes. Better to keep it simple.

Thats what I was thinking. Its very subtle and would compliment the BB stripe very well. Dont wanna over to it.

It's a Camaro thing....... Don't do it. Sort of like putting a WS6 ram air hood on a Camaro....

No matter how long you look at it -----it will still look like shit.

doesn't look too bad on the LS1 cars, but it's like a Taboo - it just doesn't belong. like a GT-R symbol on the Mustang.

**WS6ICK2K** · 10-23-2008, 04:41 PM

Its kinda like putting Cobra Rs on a F body

(which I have seen), it doesnt fit.

Point proven.........

I cringe when I see our TA Ramair style hoods on Camaros... no offense to anyone that has it done, I just dont think it looks good IMO.

I just flat out dont think the Hockey Stripes will fit. Our side markers and front bumper body lines get in the way.

Id get your bird and door emblems in all black tho, that will look good... and then maybe some form of subtle design coming off the door emblems. Just a thought. Clear side markers also look good on our cars... I have them lol.

Hey thanks for the input, I think im just gonna put some thin pinstriping and buy the black vinal kits to convert the bodycolor logos and emblems to black. Im also thinkin stanless ram air & vent covers and clear markers.

sounds good, blacking out the marker lights would look good too. but clear would go better with the stainless.
