Hey All,

I was just wondering if anybody could give me any tips when fitting a set of bonnet stripes?

Also just wondering where abouts the stripes should be fitted? Could somebody measure for me the distance from the edge of the mini badge on the bonnet to the closest edge of the stripe, just so that i know whereabouts i should run the stripe down to?!

Many thanks for your help in advance

The distance is not set in stone you can place it down and see were you are happy with and then measure it yourself!

Bonnet stripes are not that hard to fit your self, plenty of soapy water underneath and you'l be okay!

Don't use washing up liquid - too many chemicals in it which break down the life of the vinyl.
