Default Sunstrip Group Buy...

I have an option on a GB for front and rear Sunstrips for any Impreza, Main option is Black with Subaru and the logo in silver to sit over the strip, although I haven't got any pictures to show exactly what I mean so use your imaginations!! (I'm sure someone will post one for me). The price I have been given is £10 for each one, (£20 in total) and that is if we can get 10 people involved.
So, if you are interested, pop your names down and we shall see how we get on!! (Once you register I will PM you with more details of where to send money etc. although it will be straight to the company involved and not to me. I am not sure if I can post the supplier as yet, so until I hear differently I can only let you know by PM).

Cheers guys!

I would presume it is possible but I am trying to limit the options because I don't want to be a pain in the *** to the supplier!! lol. I can't see it being a problem though!!
Yes, they go on the outside but I have purchased stuff from the supplier before and I can tell you that it is world class quality!!

Best bet is to label the colours for the strip, and then the lettering next to your name..

Are these cutom sized/shaped for the Subaru Screen or do they require cutting to fit i.e just a length of stickyback plastic.

The strips are curved so they follow the lines of the top of the screen, with the ends apporx 50mm over the ends of the screen which will require trimming, so that they can fit both new age and classic cars.
Once the strip is applied, the lettering (and stars if needed - checking if this can be done) is placed over the strip to complete the job.
I have seen the finished product and I can tell you that it looks the doggies!!

No problems mate.
I have been told that it is lettering only for this, stars and logos complicate matters for group buys so we shall keep it nice and simple.

Managed to fit this today, using a 'straight' not pre-cut sunstrip and a Subaru Logo picked up at Japfest.

I'll still have one from the group buy to replace this when it gets tatty.



P.S What depth will this GB sunstrip be, as I am 6ft4 I don't want it too low.

You all have PM with details, Group buy is only running until Friday night, if your name isn't down by then then sorry, but that's it!! It's only intended as a short and sweet thing, and I want to keep it simple. THe supplier has also told me that it will be for the Subaru lettering, and the stars logo ONLY, that way it is easier to get it all done quickly.

Many thanks to you all, if you want in, simply cut and paste the list and add your name and colour choices!!

maybe i`ve read the thread incorrectly but did you say it was going to cost about £ 20 all in ???? if so there is already a graffics company that do a varied selection of subaru sunstrips etc delivered to you for £15, maybe if you approach them with your numbers they will maybe reduce this further, best of luck

make sure they arent too deep either, ie in the way of the wipers, as you can fail an mot through that

the ones I have got are as narrow as they can be to get the lettering on, without obstructing the wipers

Cost is £20 for Front AND Rear, I can promise you there is almost no-one who does them at that price!!

And I am not changing supplier so please, no more suggestions although I do appreciate people trying to help!

Couple of quick questions:

Is the subaru lettering solid or outline like in Scott.T's pic?
Is the silver line being included liek the example shown by Jasoon?
Will your supplier consider doing the black background with silver subaru for the rear side windows as per WRC cars as a further group buy?

Cheers
