Need dimensions for heritage stripes (92)

I have a vinyl cutter and can lay out and cut the stripes, but i don't have a car to reference. Can someone with a set of original stripes please measure the width of the stripe, distance from front edge of hood, width and offset of the border pinstripe, and how far apart the stripes are from each other. Total width from outside edge to outside edge would be nice too. Thanks

just the stripe itself, front and back. I have a flat hood so I can just taper them as needed. then the width of the pinstripe itself, and how far from the main stripe it is. Length from back of hood to front edge of stripe, and distance between two main stripes

Re: Need dimensions for heritage stripes (92)

got some numbers, to make an exact copy will be a pain in the butt. their not even anywhere on the car, always going skinny to wider. this should give you a good idea. If i missed something, ill try and get it for you. My stripes are a little worn, so i had to use the good spots to get a better measurement. just follow the link to the full size pics, i have some measurements in the descriptions.

the stripes are 2 7/8" apart. not including the pinstripes.

the pinstripes are 1/4" thick and 1/4" gap between them and the stripes.

Re: Need dimensions for heritage stripes (92)

Thanks, that should get me what I need. My car has a flat hood so a gradual taper will work for me.
