18 Inch Gloss Racing Stripe Decals for Trucks

Description

A pair of gloss vinyl racing stripe decals cut to an 18 inch length, made for truck owners who want a clean motorsport look on their doors or bed sides. Sized for easy placement and cut from Cast Vinyl for a smooth, paint-like finish.

18 Inch Racing Stripes Built for Truck Doors and Bed Panels

This pair of gloss racing stripes is cut at 18 inches long, a length that works well on the side of a truck cab, the rear bed panel, or the lower door area. Each stripe is a solid gloss cut from Cast Vinyl, so it lays flat and reads like painted-on striping once applied. You get two matching decals in the set, one for each side of the vehicle, so the layout stays symmetrical. The 18 inch size is large enough to make a statement without wrapping around body lines or covering trim. If you drive a mid-size truck and have been shopping Toyota Tacoma decals, this stripe pair is one of the simplest ways to add a motorsport touch without committing to a full Graphic kit.

Gloss Cast Vinyl with a Painted-On Look

We cut these stripes from gloss Cast Vinyl, which conforms to gentle body curves and holds a smooth surface after application. The gloss finish catches light the same way clear-coated paint does, so the stripes blend into your factory finish instead of sitting on top of it like a sticker. Cast Vinyl is thinner and more flexible than calendered vinyl, which helps it follow door contours and panel edges without lifting at the corners. The stripes arrive pre-cut with a premask application layer, so the spacing and edges stay crisp during installation. Clean the surface, position the pair, squeegee from the center outward, and peel the premask away for a finished look.

Available in 4, 8, 12 or 18 Inch Lengths

Every truck layout is different, so this stripe pair is offered in four decal lengths: 4, 8, 12 and 18 inches. The 18 inch pair shown here suits full door panels and bed sides, while the shorter lengths work for fenders, mirror backs, tailgates or tool boxes. All sizes are cut from the same gloss Cast Vinyl with the same stripe proportions, so you can mix lengths across the truck and keep a consistent look. Measure the flat area you want to cover before ordering, and remember to leave a little margin at body lines so the stripe does not cross a seam. Width stays proportional to the length you choose.

Applying Your Stripe Pair in a Few Minutes

Installation takes a few minutes with basic tools: a spray bottle of soapy water for positioning, a felt-edge squeegee, and a clean microfiber towel. Wet application lets you slide each stripe into place before committing, which helps when you are matching height on both sides of the truck. Work in shade on a surface that is cool to the touch, and remove any wax or polish from the area first. Once the stripe is positioned, squeegee from the center outward to push water and air to the edges, then let it set before removing the premask. Avoid washing the truck for the first day or two so the adhesive fully bonds to the paint.

Specifications

Frequently asked questions

Will these stripes fit my truck?

The 18 inch length fits most mid-size and full-size truck doors, bed sides and tailgates. Because they are universal cut decals and not vehicle-specific kits, we recommend measuring the flat area you want to cover before ordering. Avoid crossing body seams or trim edges.

Can I remove the stripes later?

Yes. Warm the vinyl with a hair dryer or heat gun on a low setting and peel it away slowly at a shallow angle. Any remaining adhesive can be cleaned off with a citrus-based adhesive remover and a microfiber towel.

How do I keep both stripes level?

Use the wet application method with soapy water so each stripe can be repositioned before it bonds. Measure up from a fixed body line, such as the bottom of the door, and mark both sides with low-tack tape before squeegeeing.
