So what length will I need?

I'm thinking of striping up the Cerb for Le Mans and wondered, if anyone had already done this before, what length of stripe did you need to do the whole length end to end?

Cheers

The Cerb is a surprisingly long beast, 5m to allow for cock
ups, judicial use of a hair dryer is needed to get around the boot lid lip too. A lot of places sell car set or bonnet sets, in wich case it is best to get one of each, good luck.

Thanks!

By my calculation that makes it almost 16 and half feet in old money...

I've worked out this complex equation just for you :-

L(Length of car) minus W(depth of front and rear windows) times N(the number of stripes required) equals X(amount of tape needed).

Equipment needed = car and tape measure (and small brain).

Oh and just in case you ever need to fit new tyres:-

Nt(number of tyres needed) equals Nw(number of wheels).
