daytona Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 Matt/Satin Black are best on yellow, IMO. I've got a feeling that's what was fitted from new. I've fitted a couple of sets in recent years and they are pretty easy to do, just use plenty of soapy water so you can move them into position on the car. The only measurement you'll need is for the roof stripe, the distance between the gutter and the edge of the stripe, I'm affraid I haven't got this to hand though. Side stripes are straight forward for positioning because they sit either side of the door handle and above your wing badges. Make sure they wrap around the door edges, I've seen some cars that have stripes cut short on the panel gaps and I think it looks poo. Good luck!
bomber1 Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 the set ive got here are matt black.£40 in tenners if your interested sorry 2 but in samuri but posse if u still have them at the end of the month i'll have em off u
samurai Posted November 10, 2006 Author Report Posted November 10, 2006 Its down to satin/matt black and gloss black now...
johnny_h Posted November 10, 2006 Report Posted November 10, 2006 Here's a couple of pics of a bad gloss stripe kit. Apologies if it's someones on here but the shape of the stripes is wrong and the gloss just doesn't look right.
samurai Posted November 10, 2006 Author Report Posted November 10, 2006 Mmmmm looks like it has to be satin black then
