Default WHEEL STRIPES!

so i put some rim stripes on my friends gsxr i know i got that sick feeling just touching it! but it turned out good so i went to the auto parts store to get some bright yellow for my baby and sure enough no where carried it i was pissed oh well i work for a body shop so i called around everywhere and they discotinued it so i ended up getting canary yellow its in other words bright yellow just a little richer and i got it in 1/4 inch so TRIAX is yours 1/4 " because that looks nice? and did you put that on yourself?I was thinking about taking off the wheels to do it seems like it would be easier that way to make them perfect.

I actually got mine off ebay, they were precurved 1/4 in strips which made it easier. I did install them myself with the wheels on the bike. To do it I put the bike on stands and throughly cleaned the wheels and took my time placing the tape. Make sure the wheels aren't cold otherwise the tape won't stick. Here's a pic of my bike with the tape.
