Both myself and Mick (BLUPRNT XR8)

Best bet is to talk to an Motor Trimmer. He had his done at Car Bra In Melbourne I think. They might still have all the measurements. PM Mick for more details. If they have the measurements, you can order over the phone I'm guessing.

Mine was a one off from Black Kat in Canberra, but they require the car for a few days. Mine cost me $550, but the guy said that it was an expensive exercise. I guess the number of hours it took.

If you want more information, just say the word

Here are some pics of mine.

I get no rubbing on mine. I haven't had it on the car since I've done the stripes, this is why I need a respray on the front bar, and to get my stipes painted in. Going to buy a new front bar as I've ripped a few nasty gouges out of the bar and my stripes are ripped under there as well. Anyway, when it's on, no rubbing at all.

That's only because you have the silly ghey Tickford Mesh that only weight's down the front of your car. Give it up Mick, you know you want too :hihi:
