Anyone have any leads on where to pick up the vinyl striping that separates the two-tones on the 85-87(88) trucks?

I would think any auto trim place could make it for you. We have a place around here called auto trim and design.

Yeah large auto paint supply houses. The small guys don't stock squat, they'll order it for you - so you can't see it in hand before buying, which sucks IMO.

Please don't wrap it over the dually fender like the guy in that second pic did.

hey I think the guy that owns that single cab came up and asked about my wheels when I was in woodburn OR. monday

and campy its best if you paint your truck before you add stripes

That's factory on the duallys. My Dad had an '87 exactly like that one, colors and everything...it was the same way.

Ugh...I guess all the square duallys I'd paid attention to didn't have the stripe setup. Man, I gotta tell you, them shitz is homely, sorry! I'd have to break it at the dually fender or let it go behind it so that it could stay perfectly level with the body, instead of curving.
