We have a local shop doing vinyl stickers and they can do a close colour match printing on the vinyl itself. These are just done on the thin outer bit of the grille. Cost me less than SGD$10
Believe you can get the strips at beastpower as well. |

Got confirmation of shipment for my lip, can't wait to put it on. Will have my brother in law color match with VO which will save me from going to the paint shop.
Thanks to Paps for setting this up! |

For those with a stripe on their CRT lip (Paps, Einser M, ???) if you used vinyl, what was the measurement? Did you just curve a straight piece around or??? I've got an idea floating around in my head and want to see if it'll work (Plus, it should help the lip stand out on my BSM).
Thanks

Nah, nothing too secret. I just remember seeing a (IIRC) E34 race car with the ///M colors around the edge of the duck bill and thought something similar might work on the CRT lip.

I recommend 5/16-2/8 wide, I think the length was 56 or 58 inches so you have enough to wrap around and your fingers never actually touch the part that goes along the front of the lip. One long strip will curve all the way around very nicely.

Nope, what I saw was on a much older car. When I'm on a Pc and not the phone I'll find a pic of what I'm thinking about.

Pretty much what I'm thinking is, the same type of stripe that Paps and Einser have (maybe a little wider) but with the ///M colors instead.
