914World.com _ 914World Garage _ GB- Sail Vinyl Correct for the 914 sails
Posted by: Mikey914 Apr 30 2014, 10:20 AM
I have a line on the OEM vinyl from Germany that's correct for our cars. The material that I'm currently using is pretty close, but not 100%. It is a domestic product that is of reasonable quality, but for the purists or those that don't want to pay $70+ from other sources, this is the stuff.
I have to bring in a full roll, so it's a significant investment, but I think it's worth it.
I'll get pictures up of the material on Friday.
This will take about a month before I have material, but who wants it?

Pictures as promised The 1st picture is a comparison of the domestic material I have on the right, compared to the material for the GB. You can see the texture is more defined, and it has a higher gloss level.

Not a problem, will be a little while longer, hoping 14 more days if the shipping is correct.

I bought a set from you here on this site(not via 914rubber.com) last year. It's a stretchy material. I personally like this softer texture better than the stock material. Haven't installed them yet. Is this the one you're currently selling? Any tips on installing this one specifically?
Thanks,
kkid

Can we get a status on this GB? I didn't miss it, did I?

No it's on. Just took awhile to get the material from Germany.
It just came in and we are processing. I will have the GB listed on the site soon and will drop PMs to all when these are ready. Should be about a day.
Posted by: Matt Romanowski May 21 2014, 12:19 PM
I'd like in on this too.
Posted by: Mikey914 May 22 2014, 12:50 AM
Good news the material is here. We've started processing it and will be able to ship starting Friday!
As usual I have made some improvements.
The pieces are precision cut for an easier installation. We have cut kerfs at the rear section of the pieces, making them easier to stretch down where material normally bunches up more.
The real kicker is we have put the holes in the material at the base so that the sail trim can easily be installed. If you are going commando on the trim, you can easily trim the bottom lip 1/8" and install. We do highly recommend using the trim as it helps to keep the edge down.
You can find them here -

If anyone has a set please PM me.
they are available from the dealer, about $20 each, the clip are a little spendy at $5 each, but reasonably priced for OEM.
Posted by: Harpo May 25 2014, 08:58 AM
Pelican has them listed for $31 but I don't believe that includes the clips
