GS white stripe on my admiral blue
 
They told me it looks much better.

German vinyl , and I the guy did a great job !! Not too much air bubbles !! and took the dimensions from GrandSportregistry, they are not 100% exact but almost near.


Cost : $50

Nice! I agree, the full stripe is better; the price was right! WOW.

PLRX 03-03-2013 12:26 PM

It looks sharp. Park it on the sun the bubbles will go away.

Yes , there are other expensive shops with poor installation. My cousin took his transam somewhere else and they scratched the hood !! :eek:

I am sure it is plenty hot all year long for that.

One of our flights left Ryadh today and it was 72F.

Great looking car now even better with that stripe. Congrats.

Looks great, well done. Been pondering doing something similar on my black 91 in silver.

I will admit, it is VERY HARD for me not to do that to my "Admiral Blue!" REALLY SWEET!!!

The shop provided that , I will see if I can get some info about it. But I hear good things about 3M vinyl if you are thinking about a good brand.

LT4 F45 03-06-2013 04:08 PM

Nice! :cheers:

Chewch87 03-06-2013 09:41 PM

jserio 11-10-2013 11:10 PM

I agree with chew..... Looks great to me.

Sassman 11-11-2013 03:40 PM

Damn! Now you guys have pondering putting black stripes on my Torch Red '94. Good looking car, as always, Mohammed_z, but won't you be tempted to go white with the rims now?

desertmike1 11-11-2013 06:49 PM

Considering how hard it is to lay down Vinyl, I'd say you did a pretty dam nice job.. :cheers:

MikeIz 82VETTE 11-11-2013 07:09 PM

Beautiful man! Love that first pic!!

Old Ben 11-11-2013 07:38 PM

It looked great when you started his thread in March. I'm sure that it looks just as good now, eight months later.

Mohammed_z 11-12-2013 10:13 AM

Thanks a lot for the compliments guys :cheers:

White wheels ? I don't think so, I'm a fan of dark wheels

I wish I could find a stripe for $50 here. I'd have a red one.

BTW...what are gas prices out there?? lol

enventr 12-09-2014 07:16 AM

Many years ago I ordered a 1970 Charger R/T with a bumble bee stripe around the trunk which was defective. I watched thru a window as the mechanic replaced the stripe. After he removed the old stripe, he used slightly soap water on the trunk and then he squeegees the stripe. There were no air bubbles . I asked the mechanic why he used the soapy water and he said it was very easy to position the stripe and it also eliminates air bubbles. By the way the car looks great

ETM 07-11-2015 02:06 PM

Love the Admiral Blue

antfarmer2 07-11-2015 02:15 PM

Take a look at vvivid vinyl good as 3m and half the price

kimmer 07-12-2015 12:36 AM

Looks great! I may have to do this to my car.

Paul Workman 07-12-2015 07:52 AM

IMO, this is what a GS should have looked like!!

Hi Mohammed Z,

Where at in KSA are you? I am in Udhailiyah near Hofuf, and just added a G/S stripe to my 90 Vette.
