Non-painted stripe widths?
Newbie to the forum here, but have been researching (uncontrollably drooling) for a while now. Have the standerd list of must-do's like everyone else, I assume. Will have my '06 soon. Looking for a stripe kit, but am looking for one wider than the majority of the ones I've seen. Anyone have any pictures of stripes wider than 10" or 12"? Don't really want to paint. Thanks for the input!

RE: Non-painted stripe widths?
Thanks, Dave!
Anyone know of a kit with dual stripes that are wider than the typical? I see the ones on the Roush cars and they look WAY too thin to me.....almost like a pair of misplaced fat pinstripes. I guess the standard gap in the middle is fine, but would like to see the outside of the stripes somewhere around the middle or outside edge of the fog lamps.
Am I alone in this opinion here? Am I being difficult? Probably am......[&:]

Check with your dealer, they may have a sign/graphic company that they use or recommend. My dealer told me who they use and when I talked to them they said they can make any width, any color. I just haven't been able to get it done yet.

I agree with checking with a sign/decal company in your area. Since you want to go with a wide stripe, make sure they install it correctly. Those wide stripes get to be a b***ch to put on. They like to retain some air bubbles underneath and wrinkle and so forth. But a good place won't have any problems with that.

I think the same way. Unfortunately you will probably need to go custom. Paint will probably look better than decal / vinyl considering the installation. You have expensive taste.
