Bonnet Stripes

I have just installed these Black bonnet stripes, took about 30 minutes from car off to drive away. These are the factory stripes, $61.75 each, ordered last week when we took delivery. There are no instructions included showing placement measurements, I placed the drivers side 1st and then located the passenger side the same. I always use a decal wetting agent from a body shop supplier (I can get it from work as just a couple of ounces are needed), never window cleaner or soapy water.
We like the look, breaks up the large Red bonnet and looks much sportier.

NICE! Are they a flat black or shiny black? And do they have any pin stripe color next to the black? It's hard to tell. Looks great with your black top!

Thanks, we like the look also!
I would call them Glossy Black, much like the roof/mirror caps/A pillar covering. The is no accent line.

We should have some rings in stock soon and you can swap out your gloss for matte.
