Default Fader Stripes

Steve (DarkfireGT) was nice enough to make these fading rocker stripes for us. The quality is superb. When I first saw them on his car, I thought they looked very similar to the fading stripes on the GT/CS. I ordered a set, but I decided to put it in the middle similar to the GT/CS.

My daughter helped me install them this weekend and I wrote up a set of instructions on how I did it.

Here's the final product:



The first stripe he designed was meant to be used as a rocker panel stripe and consequently there wasn't enough material for the front fender. He says his next design will be a bit longer and provide enough material to cover the front fenders also.

If you want to order a set, email Steve at
fadingstripes@gmail.com
. His first production run was only available in black and white but I understand he is working on other colors.
