Where can I get some Le Mans stripes?
« on: October 15, 2016, 07:51:30 pm »
Looking at getting a set of grey/silver Le Mans/Shelby stripes for my GT. Anyone know where these can be sourced? I've tried Mustang Motorsports but they are part of the $52k Shelby upgrade, also tried CJ Pony Parts but only available in black.

Thanks in advance

I think all black looks fine . I saw a white one today with black strips and I didn't like the look . Your car your choice  :thumb:

Griff was my first port of call. He can do it, and do it for a good price (of course), the issue is distance and time. Might have to do a road trip.

Yep, my car, my choice. I don't like a strong contrast such as white/black. Looking at a grey so it's subtle against the black.

Hi Dave
See Morris Signs at Ourimbah. He put the stripes on Seducer and did the bonnet and side stripes on Allan and Leahs Camaro. They are very happy with the price and workmanship he does. He's very fussy in his work.

I like the look of the matte stripes on the black. They look a bit silver. There is a place called zilla wraps in the states that sell them.

Yeah, if I go ahead, Griff will be the man. I've known Griff for a number of years and his work is always spot on. Unbelievably, his price was almost 3/4 the price of a well known parts supplier here in Oz!

Quote from a well known parts supplier - $1,600 plus install, from a recommended local $1,300 supply and fit.

From griff (on the forum) - less than half the previous cheapest price. Think that's worth the 2.5hr road trip.

Booked in for next week!

Well, I'm taking down a case (non alcoholic) and will be there from 8am (probably earlier so I can beat the traffic and give the car a clean in preparation).
