Just wondering if it's OK to stick trakktape over the stripes with no issues of the stripes peeling up? Just making sure it's OK. I will be using trakktape for the ride home and until I can get the car to PPF (which will now be longer due to the extended delivery date).

I can comment and say that I removed my stripes and they are adhered pretty darn well. I will say watch the edges because if an edge starts to come undone......you'll have a mess. That being said, I'd try it, just be careful. If the stripes were painted and buried under clearcoat, as they should be, we wouldn't be having this conversation and that's why I ended up removing mine.

Did it for a day and no issues. I used matte clear film on them afterward and the installer said it should not be an issue either.

Shouldn’t be a problem. I’ve used Track Wrap over my stripes twice and didn’t have any issues.

Not an issue at all. To be safe, cut the TrakkTape when you install it so that you can remove it from the center of the stripe to the edge. In other words, don’t put a section of TrakkTape over BOTH edges of a single stripe. I put mine on in three sections per row: One section from the fender to the middle of the left stripe, one section from the center of the left stripe to the center of the right stripe, and one section from the center of the right stripe to the opposite fender.
