Full details
This Gran Turismo ‘D1 Grand Prix’ Sunstrip in Orange is designed for car enthusiasts looking to customize their vehicle's appearance and stand out.

FAQs
Can I get the sunstrip in a different size?
Yes, larger sizes are available upon request. Please contact us with your specific requirements.
Are the sunstrip and lettering one piece?
No, the sunstrip and the 'Gran Turismo' writing are sent separately to allow you to decide the exact positioning of the text.
What tools do I need for installation?
You will need a clean cloth, a squeegee or credit card for smoothing, and a sharp razor blade or utility knife for trimming.
How do I clean the sunstrip?
Clean gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Can I request a one-piece application sunstrip?
Yes, one-piece application sunstrips are available. You will need to message us to request this option.
What does 'Visors also require trimming' mean?
It means the sunstrip is intentionally cut slightly larger than the standard windshield width. You will need to carefully trim the excess material with a blade after application to fit the contour of your specific car's windshield.
Troubleshooting
Air bubbles under the sunstrip
Gently lift the edge of the sunstrip near the bubble and reapply, using a squeegee or credit card to push out air as you go. For small bubbles, a pinprick can sometimes release trapped air.
Sunstrip not adhering properly
Ensure the window surface was perfectly clean and dry before application. Reapply using firm pressure. If adhesion remains poor, consider using a vinyl-specific adhesive promoter (sold separately).
Difficulty trimming the visor
Use a very sharp, fresh razor blade or utility knife. Make slow, steady cuts following the curve of the windshield. A lubricating spray can sometimes help with smoother cuts.
Lettering peeling off
Ensure the surface of the sunstrip was clean and dry where the lettering was applied. Gently reheat the lettering with a hairdryer on a low setting and press firmly into place.
