Take the stripes for example in post # 19 above...........
You have an ole school pin striper do a NARROW BLACK Paint Stripe over lapping \
the Vinyl where it meets the Body Color .........Not only looks good but seals the edge from
attracting dirt............

Question for the "experts", if the stripes are cut out around the nose badge and not under it, does this indicate they are NOT OEM?

Thank you! I'm looking at a 2014, they didn't look factory but are very presentable.

I'm getting ready to re-do my Jake and stripes next week. Like a dumbass I got a little to close with my power washer and blew a hunk of my Jake off. Thanks for everyone who posted. It's given me some new ideas.

It looks like some of you also replaced the crossed flags emblem with carbon flash?? I plan on doing the same and also doing the rear Corvette script in carbon flash!! I think it really pops with the Sebring Orange.
