I don't have any specs for applying stripes but YouTube must have something. I used a plastic scrapper and started in the middle to apply the stripes on my R53. Measure really well.

Wet and a-line then squeegee. Painter tape holds it in place.

I applied stripes last summer. I taped a string from emblem ot emblem to make sure they were centred correctly, and follow these instructions. I used the business end of a silicone kitchen spatula as a squeegee. Came out pretty good.

Here are the instructions I received and followed:


Here's before and after pics:

The one I bought came as two stripes on a single sheet. No measurement necessary.
But since you're asking, there is a 3cm gap, and each stripe is 13cm wide.
