    I hope this is the correct place but I am just wondering if the repo 70 GSX stripe has the factory correct misalignment over the axle that the factory came with? It was just something that I thought of.

    Repro?????

    All the restorers I know, lay out the stripes by hand.

    Are you thinking of a stencil kit? If so, heard those are not very good.

    I have used the Phoenix graphics stencil kit several times, as well as laid out several by hand.

    Applying the stencil correctly to the car does take skill and patience, but no more than laying them out by hand. Hand laying requires very strict procedures to insure the tape adheres properly, and then it's still very possible to have bleed thru issues. The stencil does a better job of providing a crisp edge.

    And no, the factory screw up is not included typically. It can be done with either the tape or stencil.
