Not a mod but it's not a tech question either.
My pinstriping is getting a bit sun faded and cracked.
If I remove it I may be left with marks that won't come out so would rather replace it, what is on there at the moment is quite understated and it looks good, problem being.....where do I find a decent range of the stuff, car accessory shops only have like basic black etc and what am looking for is 6mm, kind of metallic blue stripe with a thinner silver stripe.

Have tried a place that services the crash industry but they won't sell me any, they want to come out and do it for me, a search on google comes up with nothing either

I was in supercheap auto the other day and they had at least 50 different colours and sizes, have you tried them?

Have tried two of their branches in SA and they only had single colours

i understand y u want to keep it, but i peeled it all off then just used some compound and polished all the little glue out. trust me lookes a whole lot better imo.
plus then you dont have to buy a new strip.

but yeh if u wana buy the strip do that.
