No more black stripe - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

YoungRookie · 11-29-2003, 01:12 PM

I took off the black stripe that runs the whole way around the bottom of s13s. ahh it looks soo much better. I used a hair dryer and heated up the adheasive on the back of the stripe and it peeled right off. Although i did burn my hands a few times it was well worth it. I have longed for my car to be solid red. I will post some pictures as soon as i get off my lazy ass and run to the store and get some batteries for my camera.

Pshhhhhhhhh … I lowered my cholesterol .. how about you lower your CARlersterol

G_Fish240 · 11-29-2003, 04:08 PM

so would you say this was pretty easy? I was thinking about doing this on my white fast back, but since its white, i always think there will be like crap left over under the sticker, was it pretty clean under the sticker?

DRFT · 11-29-2003, 04:15 PM

lower your car please. lloks clean but its begging you to lower it!

KiDyNomiTe · 11-29-2003, 07:54 PM

Personally, I just use the 3M adhesive bug/tar remover...you'll have it off in like 10 min. Stuff woroks great...or a bumper sticker remover works well also. Happy Stripping boys!

Something wrong with the hyatt?

It looks better with the stripe instead of a ridge, I've seen a car like mine w/o em.

As you can see my car is in need of lowering among other things, but all in due time, its winter now...

curbhuggerrps13 · 11-30-2003, 12:56 AM

haha ur guy's cars looks like its for off road...oh sorry no baggin...n e ways what i did was just seal the tops and painted over the back thingy ma bobber and saved the whole burnin the hand issue..plus u can always paint it back to black if u dont like...who likes that thing n e ways?i say just paint over it! and if u have hicas..definetaly paint over it and sell it so that the guy who buys it tried to drift with it will crash and burn!

YoungRookie · 11-30-2003, 09:15 AM

Yes i would say that it is relativly easy. minus the hand burning part. I think the 89-90 240s look good with the stripe but the 91-94 240s look best with it off. And yes i know my car needs lowered, Im 15 no license and that is not my top priorty, even tho Santa is bringing some nice kyb agx shocks and tein s techs, happy stripping fellas
