I want to fit a body coloured sun strip to my windscreen and possibly a small strip to the top of the side windows.
Any suggestions as to where I can get this done properly?

Mine is black so a simple roll of Fablon did the job.

I would go to a graphics company and get them to print some colour swatches for you. Once you have checked these against your car you can get a larger sheet printed in the chosen colour. you would then simply apply it in the same way you would apply any graphics.

F.C. I have tinted materail on both the front window and side windows. I highly suggest to anyone that this is a great addition to the car particularly the side windows because of the amount of heat it elimnates from the car. One caveat be careful where you run the tint on the side windows if you get the materail in your sightline between your eyes and the mirror you will not like it at all. My tint splits the mirror visualy and makes it very difficult to see the half of the mirrior behind the tint. Lee

Mine is well known as having this, and although the stickers dont quite match the paint, its amazing how much of a difference the look makes.

Its been suggested painting might be better to match the colour otherwise DIY or a graphics company.

I have gone the same route as Dom. Cheap to do and easily reversible/ replaceable.

An added bonus is that there is still some light coming through the strip but no glare.
