They're allowed between 2.5 to 3 hours to do a complete car.

Who's waiting on his AG or GB GT350 R ? You cars are about to be released from plant. :thumbsup:

Wow - look at that huge machine just for curing the stripes! I'd think twice before removing the factory stripes on any car at this point!

Painful to watch. I wonder what a hidden camera would show.

I like to disassemble things.

The stripes come off easily. The curing machine just does a great job of ensuring they fit and adhere as intended.

Well at least we know they made a grabber blue R. I hadn't seen one of those. I really happy knowing that my car doesn't have stripes.

I should have clarified - I meant that I'd be concerned that aftermarket stripes might not get the same treatment and be less durable. Maybe not the case.

A heat gun will do the same thing just takes longer and the ability for you to pay attention! I don't like how he was raking the squeegee across the hood. Not sure if it was plastic or not but it sure sounded like a hard plastic squeegee against nice soft paint. I know where to look for scratches on mine now...
