Hedgehogfromhell Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 Evening all, I had a request via PM for this, so thought I'd offer it up in the main forum. I've used the Alpine boot logo and created the image in Photoshop. It's 17k x 2k resolution and requires the curve of the windscreen applied to it via a transformation. Its best to let whoever you're asking to make the strip do this (I asked Aimee at Lotus Silverstone) to do this transformation. Please ensure the colour scheme is set to Adobe RGB in order to ensure accuracy to the original document as other schemes will make the background black lighter (more like a dark grey). When you click on the image there is an option on the bottom right to download at 'Original' resolution - please use this one.

Peters4 Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 reviving this thread: anyone had these sunstrips made and installed on their Evora? If you are a bit taller, can you still see underneath? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aerobat Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 I have found it is no trouble cruising around, but if you are stopped first in line at a traffic light, you do have to hunch down to see the light change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peters4 Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 I did a try-out using some wide black ductape across the screen. Visibility is still ok (could be better but acceptable). Now the question, where to find this sunstrip with the evora design. Google didnt help.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravo73 Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 You’ll need to PM the OP. He hasn’t been around for a bit (ISTR that he sold his Evora) but if you’re lucky, he’ll respond to your PM. Otherwise, maybe try and contact him via Flickr? https://www.flickr.com/people/106283956@N05/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peters4 Posted March 31, 2020 Report Share Posted March 31, 2020 Found a nice solution in my own country. Fellow Lotus driver Bob van Melzen was able to provide me a similar like sunstrip, only in black/grey, not with yellow. Anyone else interested, contact him via http://members.home.nl/b.vanmelzen/index.htm Waiting for it to arrive... Will post photos when installed.

Akajak Posted April 2, 2020 Report Share Posted April 2, 2020 B and C recently fitted a Lotus Sport one to my car (Exige); very similar to the design in this thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
