Those looked nice. In fact the gray stripes with red trim on a black car looks great! I might go that route

What are the dimensions of the stripes on the GT350? Including the pinstripes. Can’t find a solid answer on this. Figure this may be a good thread to find out.

Here ya go... used a plastic Architectural scale to be easy on the paint:

You’re awesome thank you

Don’t stop there. That’s one measurement. The stripes are not the same width from one end to the other. They taper at each end of the car.

Do they…?

like Carroll Shelby‘s original stripes?

I just measured… they taper about 1/32” if that.
That is just most likely dimensional discrepancies.

I can send photos if anyone doubts… or just go measure your own.

Looks to me they’re about
Pinstripe: 0.25”
White Stripe: 6.75”
Gap between stripes: 1.1875” to 1.125”

I purchased a kit from big worm graphics. Did it myself in my garage. Took about 3 hours and looks amazing. Not a super hard process as long as you can manage to devise a way to get the stripes square and centered. The stripes themselves actually feel like better quality than the factory stripes in my opinion.

Looks good. I bought the OEM ones and they came in today. A local place is doing the install for 400. That’s not bad. My car is in a underground parking spot and there’s really not enough light in it to do something exact like this. Plus it’s damm cold. I think that might mess up how they’d adhere. The instructions that came with it say it’s got to be 70 or more so temp for proper adhesion.

Maybe could have worded it better - I was thinking bumber sections were different widths than say the hood/roof/trunk. No? Did I get that wrong?

The stripe width is consistent across the entire vehicle.

I'll be glad to supply photos if you'd like.

These cars look naked without stripes... gotta have the stipes!

That paint is wild! It looks like two different colors in those pictures. That's avalanche right? Looks great with the stripes. Well done.

Nope! It’s lead foot gray! It genuinely looks like a different color depending on the lighting. I love it
