How anyone done a wide stripe with two narrow stripes (one of each side of the wide one)?

Just wondering what that would look like on the 05?

you guys are killing me. Both gaps look great. 4" has the shelby look where the 1' has a tight clevage look. Wow. I can't decide.
As for the pin on the outer edge.

I love you 1 inch guys, makes mine stand out just a bit more. 10 inch stripe 4 inch gap.
Just noticed you didn't stripe the lower section of the front bumper (chin area). Get that done....it looks like your car is missing something without it. [/b][/quote]
My stripe guy advised against going all the way down due to installation issues and with the winters here he said they get chipped up quickly and look like crap. *shrug*

Later if I decide I want it I can get it done.

How’s this look? They are ghost stripes so they are a little hard to see.

I can tell you one thing....the ebay add isn't gonna help you at all
says 12" by 5 yards.......that's only 15 feet of 12" stripe....if you only plan on striping your hood it will work.....otherwise....better find another vendor.

Where did you get the stripes from and did you install yourself?
Also i guess you ran out of decal for the back?

Yes I installed them myself and I just not had the right weather to finish the back yet. I bought the stripes on ebay about $ 40.00. But it takes at least a couple of days to get them on right and alot of patience. The silver stripes I bought at pep boys. Standard silver pin stripping. Let me know if you have any other questions.
12" stripes 1.5" gap.
