Default body stripe?

Two questions what are those body stripes called? This thing that goes around the whole car? And where would I get one from that will fit right?

Thanks

You mean like the BF GT stripes? I think you can get a package that suits an AU from eBay every now and then.

As for the chrome, you can buy stuff from autobarn that does the job. They've got the right thickness, it's just the ends won't be cut to match the angle that they finish on. Cut it with side cutters and you can do it pretty well. I have.

Don't know where'd you get the red stuff from though, probably ford.

Cheers

I had Silver originally. It looks great on a black car.
