MK2 Steve 1 Posted April 2, 2010 The guy who is painting my car said he'd fit a new pin-stripe for me. Can anyone help with the location of it please? I know it goes just above the swage line but how far above? Also can anyone post some close-up piccys of where/how it starts on the front wing and where/how it ends on the rear wing Does the stripe start in a 'v' point like this <------------ ??

consul315 180 Posted April 6, 2010 Thanks Hans I appreciate your help. Please don't take a day off work specially though. the weather is supposed to be fine on Thursday, so i already played with the thought of a day off before your reply ; i have got plenty of work at home as well as i ve got too much cars stored outside now and even my trailer is used as a permanent parking space ( i m fed up with unloading/loading all the time i need it), so i ll have to take pics of some cars i want to sell anyway. :icecream: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G.O 19 Posted April 6, 2010 Thanks mate but the stripe is being fitted on Friday fitted? as per original they would be painted - I think black would be right for a gold E (white on aubergine, red on anchor etc...) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
