Smile (Custom) sunstrip - help

Hi I'm after an exterior sunstrip EXACTLY like the one here:

http://robson.m3rlin.org/cars/wp-con..._11_m-copy.jpg

Same design, shape, depth etc, but with a black background and silver writing.

Anyone know where I can get this done?

Cheers,

Tom

speak to a guy called sizer on here

He did my girlfriend's sunstrip for her. In three parts, the black, the logo and the decals. He can pretty do much anything you want

Similar to this



Or try Neil (stickmeup on here) as he can do anything you need

Or try Yell.com the UK's local search engine - search for United Kingdom businesses, look under (vehicle) signwriters. Most now have computer controlled laster cutters that can make anything, anysize, in any colour.

Don't forget that if the strip covers any part of the swept area of the screen, the car will fail an MoT.

Mine does, but only slightly. Friendly MOT guy turns a blind eye

Cheers for the replies lads. I'll have a word with sizer and/or stickmeup and see what they can do for me, I wanna make sure the sunstrip curves adjacently with the roof line too for that authentic look.

Had a pretty deep sunstrip on my old Corsa C which my usual MOT guy never even mentioned so I should be cool regarding that

Thanks again, any more suggestions post em up!

Tom
