I will be striping my GTS before hibernation this fall, it is yellow and I am planning black stripes, but I am unsure of the spacing and size the stripes should be. Does anyone have factory stripes? I am leaning toward the way Dodge does them. How wide are they and how far apart are they spaced?

Does anyone have any creative ideas for my stripes, I am going with black so far, but open to creative ideas (not too crazy, and not white or red).

Thanks in advance.

2001 - 8 inches wide, 4 1/2 inches between the stripes

2002 - Stripes are 8" wide, 4-7/16" between the stripes

1996 - GTS's, the stripe width is 8 1/4", 3-15/16" between the stripes

96 - 209mm-100mm-209mm

97 up (changed again in 2000 or 2001 I think): 203mm-112mm-203mm

I had mine painted, 8" wide and 4.5" width which is close to standard. You should stay with black, but silver and yellow is ok.

Has to be black on yellow, it's just that simple. Killer.
Just go 8" wide, with a 4" spread. It's perfect, and exactly what the '97 is.

To gain horsepower, I would paint the entire car red and either leave it a solid color (preferred for aerodynamics) or white stripes (slightly slower, but people will think you have an FE and FE's are very cool)

I'm having mine striped now. Spacing is 4" with 8" wide stripes in Pearl White used on Cadillacs. Viper RT-10 and Dodge emblems will be in silver.
