Anyone know where you can buy this stripe by itself? I know it's available with the GT1 package but that has the full set of surrounding stripes which I don't need.

with my 09 csc , usually factory wants the vin# to replace...i don't think they sell um in general...i know the door #'s on my car were very pricey for what they are...just tape...
the pillar "jakes" were a $100 each...course they are cyber grey not black

i would think the GT1 ones are very pricey...but some aftermarket stuff should be reasonable

Any respectable vinyl shop should be able to recreate any of those stickers if you have accurate photos and measurements. We have tons of shops here in Nor Cal and there a several online. You can even have the design tweaked a bit to personalize it and silence the copywrite infringement gods.

I just emailed Mike at VetteStripes, I'll let you know what he says. He did an outstanding job striping my '05 so if he has them I'd trust that they are good quality and a lot fewer $$$ than the GM version.

I heard from Mike at VetteStripes. He has both stripes and also a third version, kind of like the second one but with a border around it. None of them are on his web site so if you want more info you'll have to contact him directly. I'm not sure if he is a forum vender so I don't want to give any links here.
