    It will all depend on how much you wrap around the front of door, and rear of guard , as to how much there will be left to run into the nose cone.
    So a bit of planning is best.

    Thanks, will be looking forward to your results.
    Makes sense that the amount on the nose will depend on the starting point on the door and will explain why there are variations on the actual cars using the same factory style stripes.
    Hope it all goes well.

    Either way it shouldn't upset anybody. Like I said they were either dealer or owner fitted.

    Who knows how accurate the aftermarket decals are? Jason claims his are made from an original set but hasn't shared the fitting instructions (or even the part of interest so far!).

    Here is a link to one version (not Stick This!)

    The information shouldn't be all secret anyway. The forum should be helping others.
    Where did I say it was a secret? They are GMH drawings. Not mine. Offered to send them to a customer who may have purchased one of our kits?

    Mate how about if you want to see them just ask that question... ;)

    Yep 3 sections. I can drag out a NOS piece if anyone wants to see it. Will be buried deep in my NOS boxes as it was YEARS ago we did these!

    For anyone looking at Sandman Stripes. Be carful with cheap vinyl cut ones. Yes we STICKTHIS do sell them as well. BUT they have fine lines and sharp corners. They will not last long term.

    Screen printed stripes is really the only way to go for van you are planing to keep for longer than 3 months.

    Thanks for posting your instructions Jason and also thanks for the interest in my anus.
    Would have been really easy just to have said Yes, the stripes make it onto the HQ nose cone.
