Had some family over this weekend and standing in the garage looking at the latest status. I have not installed the side stripe yet, but have put on the GTS and 383 emblems. Brother in law asked if the stripe goes between the letters and for a moment I was starting to doubt myself. I thought the stripe stopped on either side of the letters, but when he asked I did a quick google search and saw pics of cars with the stripe through the GTS.
I still have my old fenders sitting behind my shed and to me the stripe does in fact stop at the letters. So I am assuming the examples I see out there with stripes through the GTS are wrong?
Phoenix graphics appears to have the stripe through the letters.

Performance Car Graphics has the stripes stop. http://www.performancecargraphics.com/Stripes_Lettering/Dart/68_Mid.htm
And another example https://www.forabodiesonly.com/mopar/attachments/gt-gts-jpg.41308/

Appears my photos may not be making it on. Trying to attach again.

Yes, they are supposed to stop at the letters just like your fenders show! wave


The funny thing about science is that if you change one miniscule parameter you change the entire outcome to the way you want it.

Rhino's right. That's the way the factory did them.

Thanks. Glad I don’t need to get to the emblem fasteners to remove.
