Chims with stripes

[theironduke]

Really fancy a couple of broad white stripes, Cobra style, on my Chim.

So, have any PH Chim owners done this and if so can i see piccies please!!!!

Also any suggestions of where to get it done, i've seen people on ebay selling roles of white vinyl but not sure i've got the patience to do it myself!

There is however a vehicle graphic place near me, they did the old mans van decals, i'm sure they'd be interested/capable?

Bought the stripes off ebay and did 'em myself.

They knock about 3/10ths off your 1/4 Peter.

How long did it take to stick um on?

i had these done about two years ago. the stripes were bought from halfrauds I think they were under £10, and then had them fitted when rg were doing some work on the car. there are vinyl wrap companies that will do it for you and charge you £100+.

Right....decision made...twin white stripes it is, thinking 150mmm wide with the width of the TVR badge between them?

Or red and white stripes, just to be different....?





Badge on the front grille and numberplate down low helps the look too.

Hi, sorry for the late reply, been under the cosh at work. Yes the link looks like the right one but be careful as I ordered 150mm stripes and they sent 130mm ones and I fitted them without checking. I added the smaller stripes at the outside edges later to cover yet more stone chips at the front. As for fitting they're not too bad if you take your time and follow the instructions. The worst area is the edge of the boot, especially if it's a facelift car with the more pronounced edge to the boot lid, the wide stripes want to follow the edge round and not go vertically but it's not too bad.
