[Dan stevens]

Thinking about putting one in my Artic blue 182 not sure what tho, thinking about the renault sport sticker( in pic ) in dark blue on a black sunstrip? Any ideas or pics of your own? Cheers

It was a joke haha.

I like Dan lol. I'm not just a bellend :tongueout:

This is annoying because it's made me really want a sunstrip...

 

[pastymaster]

I'll be getting a sun strip at some point, they make a big difference with cutting the brightness out (when the sun decides to show itself). Has anyone bought any decent pre-cut ones?

 

[LeeRS]

Dont get a precut one. They never fit.

 

[pastymaster]

That's a shame, I've had pre-cut on previous cars and they've fit pretty well. I'll have to sharpen my craft knife!

 

[DannyR]

Go big or go home.

 

[LeeRS]

Well they will fit but depends on how well you fit it and how high/low you want it to sit.
I work with vinyl so if you need strips let me know.

 

[LeeRS]

Pick a colour. Any colour

 

[leeds_182]

I need one for the Paxo.

 

[DrR]

This thread is making me rage with hatred.

 

[LeeRS]

Lets see your car so we can tell you what we dont like. Just fun s***s and giggles.

 

[DrR]

My car? No chance it's a Twingo lol

 

[LeeRS]

Haha. I like those after seeing the sport version at csf.

 

[DrR]

It's only temporary. I quite like it actually.

Lee, how much are the above for a 182? Would probably get a satin black.

 

[LeeRS]

£10 posted buddy.
I dont have any satin black at the moment in vinyl, only gloss black.
I do have a more matte black in a material called macsoft which is basically the same as vinyl but intended for inflatable boats.
Let me know mate

 

[Jekyll]

Ideally satin would be the one I'd get. Not into gloss, and i feel that the matte one maybe too matte, if you know what I mean?

@LeeRS

 

[LeeRS]

Will send you a sample of the matte.

 

[Jekyll]

OK mate! I don't mind paying of course!

 

[Ads29]

@LeeRS don't suppose you have any satin red do you?

Thanks

 

[bloke]

i think they look cool...

 

[LeeRS]

@LeeRS don't suppose you have any satin red do you?

Thanks

Again mate, i dont really have satin vinyl. Its pretty much gloss or matte nowadays.
I do have matte red in macsoft material.
Will send you both samples.
I think i have both your addresses in my hitlist.

 

[Jekyll]

Lee, how matte is it? Have you got any pics?

I may just bite the bullet and get it! I've changed a dress anyway mate so no point in keeping that old one.

@LeeRS

 

[Jekyll]

I like the one on @dann2707 car. Do they go slightly curved as you lay it on then and cut to suit, or is that a pretty cut one that gets that shape?

 

[LeeRS]

if you put it on straight, when you cut it, it will naturally curve to the edges of the screen

 

[LeeRS]

will get a pic in a min buddy.

 

[LeeRS]

Matte vs Gloss. @Dr Jekyll

 

[Jekyll]

Oh, it looks like satin!

Yeah I'll take one!

I will PM you in a bit as I'm after a few other things too.

 

[Jekyll]

Gloss looks shite for a sunstrip!

 

[LeeRS]

ive got a gloss one on mine but it sort of goes with the black paint.
It does dull down after a bit but im going to change mine to the matte I think as mine is a bit tatty now.

 

[scotiamr2t]

I recently fitted a matte black one to my car an got a 20cm deep one, fitting was piss easy but 20cm IMO isn't deep enough
