I am planning to put back the pinstripe on my z that wraps all the way round the car, my question is what mm is an oem one?

 

Thanks, Dan

If nobody replies sooner, I will measure mine in the morning and let you know.

The mrs plans on dragging me to the in laws first thing so it may be later on though.

I will try and sneak into the garage before she gets up.

9mm. OEM pinstripe will run you £100...seriously. I will find the one I used. I have compared them and they're near identical in colour. Will post the link....

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=250484146167 - this is the dark grey which is the same as the OEM colour.

go to a Model Shop and Ask for Trim Line Tape ... £5.50 for 5m Roll and has all colors and sizes

 

i used to sell the stuff ..

Cheers guys, ordered :)

Which one did you order?

The one in my link I'd imagine.

dark grey which is the same as the OEM colour.

 

I was always under the impression that is was back stripes that had faded to grey :blushing:.

 

I've always bought black and 8mm, again of course ebay !!

Nope. OEM are a graphite colour. I've bought new OEM ones before.

Sorry about the quality, but here are a couple of photo's of my rather tatty UK TT.

(plus a bit of over spray)

As for the colour? I could not say, looks black to me.

Hmmm, not a lot in it i would guess. Black, Gray who would really stand there and say "look, that Z is not original it has the wrong shade of pinstripe". LOL, mine has ran without one for about 4 years now.

 

Cheers guys, much appreciated!

Me and FunkySi and Albrecht for a start! :D

99032-30P85 Accent stripe, Front Bumper Z32 £9.27

99036-32P25 Accent stripe, Rear Bumper Z32 £12.06

99043-32P25 Accent stripe, Body Side Z32 LH £22.32

99042-32P25 Accent stripe, Body Side Z32 £22.32

All plus VAT and delivery. Oh and since that was back in 2003 after the respray, I guess prices might have gone up a tad since then :w00t: They're on Zairs silver one now - well they were when I sold it to him.

Well to pay those prices on this occasion for OEM you must be stark raving mad and have more money than sense - not to mention a tad anal :thumbdown:.

stark raving mad and have more money than sense

Sounds like prime criteria for being a Zed owner in the first place. And yes, you can call me a tad anal if you want (I prefer CDO - that's like OCD but with the letters in the right order) - who else would keep invoices from the rebuild of their first Zed over 10 years ago?

Look on the bright side, at least you now know the right part numbers of what you don't want to buy. Mike at MJP thought I needed my head examined too at the time and would almost certainly use a substitute next time.

I've bought original ones, yup and I am mad. :)
