$15 hash marks (ordered)
I am taking a shot at these hash marks. Hope the orange will match my calipers somewhat. I figure for $15 shipped for both sides it's not much $ to take a chance on. If they look ok I'll keep them installed if they look tacky/cheap I'll trash em
Can I link to ebay Here?
Not sure so... That's where I ordered them. If it's ok ill post a link

No problems if they do
No one has mentioned how my "replica" wheels don't look oem ;-)
Nothing but positive comments on them
Maybe they will be cool. Maybe they will suck. Stay tuned for pictures either way.

I Believe its in the vinyl, GM has a completely different grade, hope the 15.00 holds up to sunlight and weather, but like they said not a huge investment if it does not work out

Get what you pay for isn't really true
Like a brand new vette versus a 1 month old vette with 125 miles . Huge price difference but not much actual difference
So Dasani water and smart water are 5-10x better than off brand bottled water ? :-)
The guy said its oracle or Avery (both make great vinyl) he wasn't sure which orange he had that would match for me the best, but it should be one of those two.

Good question but I don't think the main suppliers even sell a version that's a 1 out of 10
I researched so much vinyl as I wrapped some on my last vehicle interior/exterior. I was very close to wrapping the entire car when I paid it off but I bought a vette instead

I've heard that. I even have a friend that does that for a living but I wasn't sure what the exact shape and dimensions are to work with the curvature of the fenders. Are they just 100% straight lines? I've never seen any in person before

GM stripes
The big difference on the GM stripes is that they are painted and clear coated. Not just a vinyl stripe. I have seen some vinyl stripes that look great. I bought my OEM stripes off e-bay for less than half retail and installed myself. The stripes really changed the look of the car.
Good Luck

They are painted two tone but are too thin to be multiple layers of vinyl. Specs said they were coated to provide UV protection. My guess is it is not the same paint as used on the car, but it is still paint.
