    found these decals in With my extra parts. Seems like I’m missing a portion of the kit that would go along the middle sides of the car over the fender wells. They are gold.
    Any thoughts?
    I thought maybe taking one and going across the back of the car between the tail lights might be kinda cool.
    Anyone in need of these, or have the rest of the kit?

    How are they sized compared to the taillights? If they are close I say go for it, it would look good.

    Those look like a reproduction stripe. Not factory.....just something that was made up.

    They’re really close to the same height as the tail light. It would look intentional between them.

    The length is weird for factory. The came from red line or red dot graphics out of Canada.

    I like the Gold with my paint color. I’m really thinking these other stripes that someone else painted on need to go tho.
