RE: [DML] Re: SIDE STRIPES



The little space on the left rear quarter panel was my fault... I messed up.
There is a deep curve there and you need to stretch the material a little 
and make it fit.
When I did the other side I did it perfect.
I plan to get another peice for the rear, peel it off and do it again to fix 
that.

As far as the cut out letters, we could make one with no letters cut out at 
all.
We thought of a way to put the printed version there, by simply cutting out 
a rectangle
and having the smooth printed peice behind it would work.

However this is just preference, I didn't do it that way to be cheap, I just 
thought
it looked more natural that way and every one I have shown it to agreed.
On most of the original stripes I have seen the paint is faded and coming 
off of the vinyl
and looks cheap in my opinion.

If you can find an original set then go for it.
I might sell the original set I used for testing....make me an offer.
