69 Shelby side stripes
« on: March 03, 2014, 07:12:39 PM »
I'm looking to purchase new set of white stripes for my GT-350. Are they all the same? Are they all reflective and do they look concourse correct? Which one is most like the original?
I remember that the old repros were just awful. Fortunately, they seem to have greatly improved. I remember reading that some are too white compared to the original. Is there one that is closer to the right colour? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Carm.

I assume you are talking 69? The current 66-70 white, black and gold stripes are good for color. 66-70 blues are way off, all KR stripes are way off on font and spacing. I am currently making correct KR white and black and working on correct blue. I've done correct 69 blue but they were a one off set and you dont want to know what they cost. All 69 stripes are reflective

Hi Guys,
I need some advice concerning white 69 GT350 stripes. I have a complete set and a partial set of NOS. My question is : Do NOS stripes work alright as far as the adhesive sticking or should I buy repro? Any correct stripe sets on the market today, and who sells the most correct ones?
Thanks,
TOB
