Description
In this tutorial, we show a clean and clever way to add custom vinyl stripes to the hood of a Mercedes E-Class using two types of Knifeless Tape.
We start by outlining the design with masking tape. Then, we use one Knifeless Tape with a single filament to cut the main stripe, and another with triple filaments that not only cuts but also creates two equal side stripes automatically.
A precise, fully reversible mod — perfect for the holidays as a DIY gift or winter-season upgrade.
