Stripe application
I just got my racing stripes in the mail yesterday. For all you guys that put them on yourselves about how long did it take you to do it?The website says plan on it taking two days. Does it really take that long?

RE: Stripe application
Just my Hood took about an hour ... but they much wider than lemans. That was prep .. application .. let dry for about 10 minutes ... remove paper. I would estimate 1 hour per section ... some will go quicker ... some a little slower. I can't see the entire car taking more than 4 hours or so ...

RE: Stripe application
mine took me about 10-12 hours, but that was doing 10" rally stripes, including spoiler and front bumper, pinstripes the length of the car, and rocker stripes. took much longer to get the old ones off and remove all the residue

RE: Stripe application
The smaller parts like the rear decklid, spoiler and bumpers took the most time. Howe long i guess depends how maticulous and picky you are, and how much you re-do peices that aren't lining up right. Took me prolly 6-8 hrs initially.
If you got the pre-cut stripes, definetly cut out the peices individually first.
