any recommendation on XPEL wrapping a GT350R with stripes.

for example, the hood has paint, stripe, paint in the middle, stripe, paint



1. wrap XPEL Ultimate over paint and stripe (1 piece of XPEL)
2. wrap paint with XPEL Ultimate and XPEL Stealth over stripes and middle paint (3 pieces of XPEL)
3. wrap the expose paint sections with XPEL Ultimate and PEL Stealth over the stripes(5 pieces of XPEL)

I have matte black stripes and covering the stripes would have made them gloss. So we didn't do the stripes. And the stripes are actually a paint protecter in themselves so it didn't bother me a bit.

I wrapped the entire hood because I have glossy vinyl stripes on my non-R GT350. For your R with matte stripes, I would Xpel everything except the stripes.

I wrapped the whole front end and then had them wrap the stripes all the way to the back b/c a friend w/ vinyl stripes on his 'vette looks like new under the Xpel and faded and cracked everywhere else.
