You want stripes so here is something to consider. Consider "ghost stripes". Do Stripes in your body color but with a little Pearl. Only in some light conditions your stripes will 'ghost'.

Just a thought. Please don't over embellish your beautiful Camaro. Your are at the point of going from a slick high performance sleeper to something overly tricked out.

Years ago I had a lady friend in PA horse country. Old money. She once told me when you get dressed up to go out, take a look in the mirror and remove one accessory because most likely you over did it. She was right. As a designer sometimes I over did it. But I remember what she told me, I step back, remove stuff that is not necessary. Easy to over design, difficult to step back and keep it classic.

I hear ya. Those are just some of the thoughts. I told my guy I want it to be subtle, not jump out at ya but when you get close be...............WOW! I just want the lines of the car accented, nothing to break them up, I like dark grey with burgundy, I like pearl like a highlight and she needs a Ruby of some sort somewhere. There will be a lot of planning before I do it.
