2005-Current Chevrolet C6 Corvette Coupe Rally Stripe Installation Notes

 

While our precut kits appear to be "simple" to install, application techniques used in certain areas of the kit prove to make the project go smoother. Please review the notes below that we've compiled to assist in the installation.
By all means, if you do not feel comfortable with the thought of installing the stripes yourself, we suggest contacting a local graphics installer and/or automotive body shop in your area to assist.
In the event a new piece is required, simply let us know the part number (ATD-CHVCRVTGRPH16) proceeded by the letter designation of the piece required (i.e., ATD-CHVCRVTGRPH16h). We'll provide a cost for the piece and make arrangements to send one out upon receipt of payment.

 
1)  Please review the general Custom Graphics Installation Instructions to become familiar with the preparation of the finished surfaces and methods of installation.
2)  Cut the graphics apart from the kit sheet. Carefully cut each piece so that approximately 1/8" (.64cm) of the excess backing and application paper is exposed.
3)  The stripe kit is set for certain spacing at the center of the vehicle. These dimensions are noted below. To start with though, mark with a grease pencil, fine line tape or other temporary marking device lines/marks down the center of the vehicle. You will use these marks to place your stripes.
4)  Stripes A, H, I, J and K are pretty straight-forward as far as installation goes. All the stripes have an approximate .0625"-.125" (1.5875mm-3.175mm) margin at each end. Stripe pieces A & J have the Corvette logo cut out which assists in centering the piece in the area of installation.
Simply center the stripes in the area and install. We usually install from the center of the stripe and work to each end with the squeegee. This is done by simply peeling approximately 2-4" (5.08cm-10.16cm) of the backing paper from the center, folding each side of the backing paper slightly, and "hinging" the graphic from the center.
5)  Stripe pieces B, C, D, E, F & G are fairly simple to install as well. Please follow the instructions below with the suggested spacing so that your installation will look great:
Stripe pieces B & C:
These pieces are installed on the Hood. Prior to the installation of these stripes, please install piece A. This will set the width of the stripes at the front. The suggested space at the rear of pieces B & C is 4" (10.16cm). This will allow the sides of the stripe pieces to follow the soft edge of the hood center contour.
Stripe pieces D, E, F & G:
The inside of these stripe pieces follow the indentation of the Roof panel. Spacing at the front of pieces D & E is 7.625" (19.37cm). Spacing at the rear of pieces F & G is 5.4375" (13.81cm).
In the event a new piece is required, don't fret. While it's frustrating that a little piece of vinyl can give us so much grief, just remember that the worst case scenario is the you just have to purchase another one - it's certainly not the end of the world. We suggest swearing a bit and moving on.
Please Note: While vehicle manufacturers make a great effort to be uniform where the factory emblems are placed, there may be times in which they are slightly off or askew. Due to the fact that we cannot account for such occurrences, slight trimming around the emblem(s) may be required to balance the amount of outline exposed. Take great care in trimming to not cut into the vehicle's paint. If you are unsure of yourself with trimming, by all means, seek the assistance of a professional.
