personally i wouldnt do the feder stripes. i think are fenders are to tall for them and the look guady rather then sleek...hense on the camaro or a corvette where there isnt a long spot between the wheel house opening and the top of the fender.

you simply tape off the surrounding area and paint? I'm thinking about doing that as well since the overlays are taking a beating.

yep taped off the gold part, sanded, painted, cleared. no peeling or chips yet so im pretty happy with it. wheel cleaner doesnt seem to mess with it either which i was worried about since that stuff is pretty strong.

ALSO, to the OP, heres my fender stripes.

Their using my car as the promotion for their sales. Except mine doesnt have the side skirt decals anymore.
