Installation of Stripes?
Hey Guys,
Will most likely get the Grand Sport Center Stripe Carbon Flash (DNE) option plus the Heritage fender stripes. Are they applied at the assembly plant in Bowling Green or are these applied at the dealer?
Thanks.

They are installed by a third party contracted by the plant.
My 2016 left the plant with no stripes (have the build book to prove it), but when it got to the museum it had stripes.
Was told by the plant they ship the cars off-site, a vendor installs them, and ships them back. Then the plant sends it to the dealer.

The reason the plant doesn't is time, and skill level. To get it done right you need someone who knows a lot about vinyl, and a place to do it. The plant has neither, and it was cheaper to contract it than to learn it.
