That's what I would have been going for on mine. I also struggled with finding the correct widths from...

You're spraying the stripes on? I hadn't really thought of doing that. Out of interest, will you use something like a laser level to get the lines looking straight? My original plans of straight bits...

Dave, if you're going for plasti dip, as in the proper stuff, not the Halfords equivalent, check you're getting tins with the newer spray nozzle. I may have mentioned this before but my memory...
