A friend of mine is repainting my car and when he does it I'm going to have him paint heritage stripes on while he's at it. I have an overhead shot of a hood with the stripes, but I need the dimensions. Can someone help me out? I need:

**width at the rear of the hood
**width of pin stripe and width of gap
**width at front of hood
**distance between stripes
**distance from front of hood to where the stripe widens out

I think that should do it. Thanks if anyone can get that.

 

Sorry can't help you there, But I love your French joke.

Taken from my Z, dont know if you are staying with an RS hood or if they are different.

Pinstripe is .25" width

Distance from stripe to pinstripe .25"

Center spacing between pinstripes for middle of hood 1.25"

Front width, taken from just behind where they curve off the edge parallel with the bumper 17 3/8"

Rear Width 33 1/4

Rear stripe width 33 1/2

They really dont have a straight spot then start curving, its a gentle curve starting where they begin pretty much, if you need i can take some measurements on the width at a few different points from the front of the stripe at how wide they are.

 

Sweet deal. That looks like exactly what I needed. Thanks

If you don't mind, could you get a couple of measurements like you mentioned of the width in a couple of places? I'd appreciate it.


And yes, I'm keeping the RS hood for now. Maybe one of these days I'll get the power blister hood or whatever its called.

 

Im bringing this back to life. I would like a picture with dimensions on the hood from the front of the stripe back to the end of the hood like every 5 inches, im trying to get a stensil made so i can spray these on but it seams to be harder than i thought. if someone knows of or has a stensil let me know ill buy it off you!! all i really need is the width of the stripe as it goes from the front of the car back, the rest i can get out of this post. thanks guys

PS if anyone has pics of true heritage stripes (or as close as you can get) that have been sprayed on post a pic or a link. thanks

 

Here are some pics of mine, sorry i cant take new ones for you or get exact measurements right now, a friend wrecked it a while back and I still havent had time / money to repair it, hopefully soon.

 

thanks for the pic are those painted on?

 

Nope, factory stickers.
