To me, these are the "most" correct for these types of stripes. A myriad of color options as well.
Bob Tilton is a great guy and gets these to you in a timely manner. Great customer service. http://www.early911sregistry.org/forums/sh...ht=side+stripes |

Were these installed at the Factory or at Dealerships?
Thanks. |

I'm not able to see the images (not a member of the early 911 registry), but I think these are images of Bob's stripe kits:
If so, they are close but not exact- look at the relative width of the wide stripe. However, they are very close, and a possible option since I only need to redo the drivers' side (you can only see one side at a time!) I'll PM 914Werke and see if his single side is a match. thanks!

74Ravenna- no, I applied these stripes myself about 7 years ago. Unfortunately I can't recall where they came from- they might have even been purchased from a 914World member.

I have Tilton's side scripts on my '74 2.0L and they look great. Bob spent a lot of time and effort reproducing these.....he actually used a NOS of scripts as a base template. IMO, you should just replace both sides.....the chances of you finding an exact match to what you currently have is slim.

The orphan I have is a bit different.
Lettering and top/bottom stripes are thicker more block style lettering ~ Oh Well ... |

I agree that the original poster should remove his existing stripe and go with two new ones....preferably the ones from Early 911 S Registry and Bob Tilton.
Go for some original/different colors Singer Porche style as well! Dark gray center stripe with navy blue upper & lower stripes....would be sweet. You only live once... |

My 75 had stripes exactly like your first picture.
Some of the others on here the outer stripes are too narrow and further away from the center section compared to what we have. |
