View Full Version : Silver stripes

I know this is a long shot but is there anyone out there with a spare strip of stripes in silver for my red Mk1? I’ve just had two new front wings fitted but the stripes between the front bumper and front wheel arch is missing on both sides. I know there are other options but I’m trying this first hoping I’ll be lucky.
If anyone can help me it would be much appreciated.
Thanks

The red looks pink but it’s just the bright sunlight. Stripes missing between bumper and wheel arch both sides

Hi Alan
I know its not what you asked but I had the same problem a few weeks ago. Three rows of Halfords 2mm stripes did the job as a temp fix (black instead of charcoal but looks OK for now)
I think they have a silver or grey as well !
Hopefully someone might fix you up with the genuine stripes.

Hi Ian,
That sounds a good idea. I'll give Halfords a visit and see what they have got.

Hi Alan,
I may have some in the surplus club shop stock, but if not, we'll be ramping up the shop during September and we have bought a vinyl plotter, so will be able to offer side stripes to all members at reasonable prices. I'm going away to a wedding abroad tomorrow morning, but have sent myself a reminder to check on our stock for you on my return. (back on Sunday, so will be next week sometime)
Keep an eye on the forums for updates.
Hope you're well. :)
Cheers,
Tom

Hi Tom,
I'm very well thanks. Happier now that the car has been returned from the body shop. Had to miss a few things this year but am up and running again.
That sounds great if you find some surplus stock. Also sounds a great plan to eventually offer stripes to all members.
I'll keep a look out for updates.
Thanks Tom

Hi Alan
Found these in the garage they are for the rears but you can cut them down.
You are welcome to them if any good to you.
Would love to go to Epsom if you don't mind being smoked out again.
Cheers Mark

That is brilliant. Thanks a lot they are just what I was looking for.
If you're coming to the Epsom run perhaps you can bring them with you?
For the Epsom run we'll be meeting at Clackets Services at 10.00am before heading off to Epsom if you fancy meeting there, or we'll see you at The Toyota HQ.
(Think we can put up with the smoke!)
Thanks again
Alan

Hi Stuart,
Many thanks for the offer, I not sorted quite yet but have been offered some stripes by Mark and should get them when I see him in a few weeks time. If I still need more perhaps I can come back to you?
Thanks

Hi Alan
Have posted them today. You will have to cut them down as they are the ones for the rear. Hopefully they will be ok.
