The dimentions are as follows:

1/2" upper stripe
1/2" gap
3 5/8" main stripe
1/2" gap
1/2" stripe

Are you doing it by hand or a vinyl cutter? If you are using vinyl cutter I have the "cobra II" already laid out. I can send it to you in any format.

Is it an exact duplicate?

I have a gal that makes mine, but I had to scale it from a (repro)rear spoiler decal, so it needs a little tweaking. Usable, but always looking for something a little cleaner. I have a NOS side stripe if needed for a template.

Yes I have the exact layout. Right now the only thing I can't do is the Cobra logo for the fenders. As soon as I can find a NOS one I will duplicate it.

Just so happens I have an NOS green one.

Does making the template involve destoying/applying it?

No but the application tape on the front would have to be removed if it is still on. I would just need it scanned into the computer with high detail.

Shoot me an email with your mailing address, I'll send it off. I would like to have it back when you're finished, not that I'll ever actually apply it to my car, but it's a good reminder of what it used to look like.
