Pinstriping help

Would you use this...

to put the pinstrip back onto your bumper?

I used it for the front bumper on mine, but it was too wide so i had to go round with a stanley knife and cut it all the way round to the right width, only thing is if you look carefully it looks bodged but from more than a metre looks fine unless you actually look at the pinstriping

6mm on mine and no cutting involved.... and it looks original. just use some white spirit etc to clean the bumper first or it'll never stick properly

[admc6]

good advice. Where on the edge have you put it upto? did you angle it the same as the taper?

[boneybradley]

I followed the bumper insert line and angled it to match...

dont know if you can see it well on these pic's but it should look similar.....

[admc6]

Yeah thats the pic i had been looking for. Thought you'd do that but best to check to see what everyone else had done.

Cheers for that.

Will sort it out when i get some daylight.

Boneybradley...

is your car an anniversary with standard gti wheels on it or a replica/ lookalike wannabe anniversary?

I measured the stripe on mine .. 6mm.
