Hey guys, me again... I know it seems like I have been hocking stock left and right on here, but I have been working on so many projects and trying to come up with solutions for things that all of you have wished for. When ever I see something mentioned on the list that no one seems to have an answer for I get to work on it right away. I had been asking around for a set of the wide black side stripes for almost a year now, and no one had any. I did manage to pry a set out of Stegars hands for a cool $500 but he said that they were all he had left. After I got them I was amazed at how good of shape they appeared to be however the glue backing was not trusty enough to stick on the car. The reason that NO ONE has bothered to re-make these in the past is because you can not get the material any longer. They are not just plain black, they are textured...sort of like the grip they stick onto metal stairs... or like the vinyl tops you see on cars. They are bright and glossy, and have a thin 1/4" slick seam that runs around the outside portions and on the front fender sections there is a silver printed "DMC". My plan was to simply make them out of regular black vinyl and sell them that way, and there was interest. However, I have come up with some material that is EXACTLY like the original. EXACT same color, gloss, thickness....etc. The main difference is that it will not have the thin slick seam around the edges and instead of printing the "DMC" we will simply cut it out and let the fender metal shine through. (The DMC cut out peices fit nicely on your door sills too) Naturally, this material is more expensive that regular vinyl. It is 4 times as costly and will increase the price. I will offer these for only $249.00 PER SET! I can email you photos, and send you a 1" square of the sample material if you are interested. I will install a set onto my own car soon and will post photos ASAP. These are the closest thing to original that you will find at any price. - Videobob http://www.dfwdmc.com To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Yahoo!
