    that is awesome. exactly what I want to do. 2 gt stripes down the length of the car (probably just to the bonnet) but slightly over to the passenger side.
    one would be blood red, the other would be bright orange.

    show us pics as SOON as you are done.

    also give us an idea of how difficult it was, how much it cost and your methods...

    Keep it quiet, but i used Black PVC Tape. Fairly stretchy, and easy to mould . keeping the strips the correct distance apart is the hardes part.

    Won't the UV light shrink and crack the PVC tape?
