I was never happy with the negative phoenix red (orange) side stripes placed on my LE after the repaint- just a 1/2 ass job & 1/2 ass stickers (sorry George/AA but you earned that one), especially on such a nice repaint. Peeled em off & got myself 2 sets, 1 from AA & another off of evilbay. They both suck & & are not spaced right/scaled right or cut right. I know what they're supposed to look like, having been around the car for 40 yrs now & was going to take advantage of the warm weather this weekend to put them on. Well, that idea went up in smoke like the money I spent on the 2 sets I have lying around.
Pics below are before & after; right now she's bare white. Does anyone know a good source for these stripes? Attached image(s) |

I am also working with Wayne on a challenging LeMans stripe project similar to the tapered stripes on Shelby GT350s,
I want a removable stable product in Satin Black, which is not the standard product he cuts. Wayne is working on getting me some reverse templates to use and then spray the stripes with Plastidip. if that works he will cut the whole job for me. So far he has worked well together and communicates satisfactory. I will recommend him when I see what he delivers. John . |
