How big is my Cerbera (for stickers)
Discussion
Morning Folks,
The Cerb is in for a 12k service, mot and some general stuff so I don't expect to see it for a week or so and I need to order some stripes for Le Mans.
so I need to know what length to get (we'll be adopting a gulf or plain white stripe this year) to go from very front over the bonnet, roof, boot and down to the underside).
If anyone has a handy tape measure I'd appreciate it.
The car is black so any opinion on stripe colours would be welcomed.
Cheers

I did mine in orange for Le Mans one year. One thick stripe, with two small "guide" stripes either side. It certainly got noticed!
I can't post photos from work, but there are pictures around on here somewhere of it...
If I recall correctly, I ordered 5m of vinyl to do it - I'll check when I get home.

If the car is black, then white would be the classic colour scheme for the stripes. Pehaps ask to get some Gulf stickers made up in tones of grey so that you get a monochrome / B&W photo look?
Madbadger has a black Tamora that he stickered up in Gulf colours last year - it attracted LOADS of attention so seemed to be a very popular scheme (even when parked up, it's so f£$%^&g loud it attracts attention whenever the engine is turned on!). I've attached a couple of shots of the Tamora for you as well.
Roly (Chimera) and I went for the Gulf look last year - mainly because our cars are the light blue colour. Here's were we met another Gulf Chimera in the campsite:

Hi,
You wouldn`t, by any chance, remember or know the width of both the main stripe and the guide stripes.
I do like this style of stripe - seemingly wider main stripe than others of this style within this thread.
Cheers.
I don't recall perfectly but the side stripes were thumb-width, so around two or three centimetres, and the centre one was somewhere around 25-30 cm.You wouldn`t, by any chance, remember or know the width of both the main stripe and the guide stripes.

I usually buy mine from here http://www.hollographics.com/acatalog/Viper_Stripe... orange centre stripe with white outer stripes on my blue Tuscan looked stunning, IMHO of course You wouldn`t, by any chance, remember or know the width of both the main stripe and the guide stripes.

Hi
Thanks very much for the info.
The more I look at it the overall width, from the pic, seems to more or less the width of your number plate - was that deliberate of or just coincidence
That all said and done, apart from the obvious white, what other colours, if any, would look good/ stand out on viper blue?

Didn't see your post prior to asking about peoples ideas for stripe colours on viper blue.
Was actually considering the gulf colours and seeing the orange on the blue it looks nice.
The number plate width was pure coincidence. The only criterion was around making an impact, and hence the lurid orange, as opposed to the more "sensible" white or silver.
I do think that stripes can either be the subtle "classy" sort or the come on if you think you're hard enough sort. With a blue car, I sgree that the whote silver in a slightly narroer stripe is the classy end of the spectrum.
I'm of the view that I only put stripes on for impact, so the louder the better. I reckon fluro yellow would show up quite well...
