Default Wheel stripes

Have seen a couple cars on here with stripes red or yellow my question is where did you get them when I search flea bay all I find are motorcycle ones and I assume they would not be large enough!
Thanks

Like this?



These are being made for me right now, should be done this week, by modular-concept

The stripes are usually painted or powder coated on by the manufacturer. I know I have seen HRE do it, as well as Modular-concept.

I would think a competent pin striper could paint one as well.

I've seen a lot of wheels that just get a custom stripe put on by a pin striper or good painter, heck you can probably do it yourself if you have a steady hand. The TV show Overhaulin does that often.

Find a good pinstripper and you'll be all set.
