Front fender hash/grand sport stripe thoughts

Im considering ordering the vinyl hash/grand sport stripes for my SS. Can those of you that have them post pics and let me know where you bought them. I don't want to have them painted on yet in case I don like or get tired of them. There are several different sellers and styles on eBay but I'm not sure if they are crap or not. Also how's the installation, is it tough to get them aligned even on both sides. Thanks.....

the thing i don't really like about these is that they don't go all the way down the fender. are they supposed to stop short? I've seen some that go all the way down...

Ive seen both too, how difficult was it to line them up so both sides of the car are equal.

Thats why I like them. I do not like the ones that wrap around. These ones stop right at the fender line.

They give you instructions. I think each side is 4" back from where the front bumper ends.

I agree, the ones that wrap around aren't as nice. How well have those held up to sun, washing, waxing etc...

They are fine. When you wax, wax around them obviously.

i think mine are pretty good....i wasn't sure about having them go all the way off the fender or not as i'd seen both on corvettes. i went with all the way off first to see how it looked. i like it. plus, it makes it different because most do it where it stops at that crease.
