Opinions on these...

...here is a before & after of the original from dealership stripes...& my recent change.

...was my 1st shot at ever doing anything with vinyl or pinstriping...so they didn't come out perfect...so I may re-do. (some small wrinkles...etc )

...no big deal 'cause I got this strip of cheap cf stuff from autozone for 12 bucks.

...I may re-do, ...& put the same cf/w black pin...but back to "bonnet" style angled stripes like it came with...??

...just wanted a slightly different look...seems like most NFRs I've seen have that original bonnet stripe.
..oh, and that weird spot on pic is just light reflection (that pic was just closest angle as the "before"
thanks..J

..yes, cool decal to the spoiler! ..colors all flow nicely. ...any more pics, some other angles?
..and, was that part of a roof graphics package, or were you able to purchase the wing decal only?

Thats the best pic we have at this time. We had that done locally. Any good sign shop that works with vinyl should be able to make one up for you? Maybe the guy that did ours could send you one out? He has it on a computer program.

czoog, check out Aesthetic Creations site. They have multiple stripes with pins and you can just choose the 2 colors. His site is in the vendors directory, upper left of any forum page.

I meant to post these a long time ago, just realized I never did! I must have put them on another stripes thread. Anyhow, here are a couple photos during install, and one after it is completed. The blue of the roof stripes looks lighter than it really is in the last photo, probably because they are reflective and the camera didn't capture the color well in the sun.

Mine are standard issue, I had the dealer put them on before I took delivery. I do have some side stripes inbound from Aesthetic Creations, so I'll post pics again after I have those on...

Very nice stripes, I like the change in color between bonnet, hood and boot!

I finally got stripes! Okay, they aren't totally done because it took way longer than expected, but I plan on adding black on the boot as well.

I'm pretty sure one fish had those done by Lyle at vinyl styles. If that helps any. I'm sure he'll chime in though

Roof wrap

just purchased this 2011 Clubman and had roof wrap installed last week. Still debating hood or back door stripes and possible checker board stripe down the side.
