    GTS Stripe Measurements?

    I'm getting ready to have my new GTS wrapped with vinyl stripes and want to be sure they get the dimensions correct. I was wondering if there is a GTS owner who would be willing to take some measurements of their stripes so I can provide them to the shop as a go by. Thanks in advance!

    UPDATE: I found a GTS with stripes at a local dealership and have taken the necessary measurements. Just in case anyone else is considering the same, I have placed the dimensioned drawings in the how-to below.

    The Year Matters

    97-2002


    97-02:

    8" wide stripes with a 4 3/8" gap between


    Metric? 97-02 has 203 mm stripes with 112 mm gap between them


    TRIVIA: 96 GTS stripes were a bit different than all other G2

    You mention VINYL. Chek out www.autodrimdesign.com

    Looks like you had a little misspelling that resulted in a broken link, Corrected: http://www.autotrimdesign.net/

    Have you used them? They look like a very skilled shop with lots of custom product. I also followed a link to their Youtube channel showing lots of their capabilities.

    I see them now! I was looking under "decals" instead of "graphics". That being said, I'm having the entire car wrapped so gonna let them handle the how.

    I'm wrapping it like the GT3-R race car (minus the rear wing and text graphics of course)

    Thanks guys. The shop I went to did an amazing job. I'm gonna create a build thread once I get all the pics and video from them. They used Avery vinyl.

    That's what she's wearin' now Chomping at the bit to get some good pictures taken to post up. Main thing holding me up is I was unsuccessful with getting the new splitters installed I purchased from Jetstar. Gonna give it another shot soon.

    That's amazing. I'm officially jealous.

    One question, how do you see out the windshield? Without those top few inches I wouldn't have a chance of seeing stop lights change.

    I'm short lol

    Seriously though, I do have to duck my head down to see stop lights if I'm the first car but other than that, my vision isn't restricted at all.
