Bit of a random request,

Can anyone with an MY18 measure the gap (at narrowest point) between the hood vents.

I would like to find out the widest dual stripes you can go between them without going under the vents

Thanks loads in advanced

[MENTION=6592]BigWormGraphix[/MENTION] has these. I'd guess about 9.5" is the widest you could go with 1" gap.

They might be able to help you with the actual measurement though.

I think they are Slightly wider stripes then the GT350, but not quite wide enough for my tastes, and from pics I’ve seen of their stripes on an 18, I believe it could go wider.

Like you said, I think the widest will be around 9.5” but I would like to be sure (9.5” will pretty much be perfect if you can)

Would you try going under the scoops partially? [MENTION=15924]Vanel27[/MENTION] has stripes like that on his.

Seen this. Looks great. Definitely an option. Just would like to know the gap to get an idea of how I want to proceed

10" stripes with a space of 1.5".....

[MENTION=15924]Vanel27[/MENTION], seen it and love it.

I’m just wondering what width stripes I could get away with without going under the vents (which after checking out your car is very much an option).

If you could get me a measurement between the vents, it would very much ch be appreciated :thumbsup:

Awsome, thanks loads

So based on this, using a one inch gap, I should be able to go with 9” wide dual stripes and still have room for a 0.25” pin stripe.... Nice!
