Belly band you can get any number of places, Amazon, etrailer, lok for 1" rv vinyl trim or some such. Last I knew you had to call Escape, or drop parts an email on the decal.

Indeed, you can email parts and service dept and be given a quote for the graphics. I asked for deep blue or purple and purple was available. Bellybands are only available in white or black, for some reason.
I have a black band already and purple will go fine with that.

There are many colors of belly bands available, just not from ETI.

That's fine for now. I will see how I like the black band with the purple graphics, and go from there.

I am getting a trailer with purple graphics and a black belly band in mid September. I posting that in case you want to wait and see a picture of mine before you place any orders.

What's a belly band?

Will Escape leave off all of their graphics if asked?
Is it reasonably easy to add custom graphics later? Paint on custom striping?

The “Belly Band” is the aluminum track that is riveted to the trailer to beautify the joint of the top and bottom. There is a vinyl type material strip that is squeezed into a track to cover the rivets…most don’t light up.

Yes they will leave off the graphics but you will not get credit for them. They will however give them to you for later install…say for resale. You can also remove some of the graphics when you get the trailer if you feel it is a little much in some areas.
But as mentioned above, checking with Escape is always the best route for any info as new rules maybe in affect.

Please phone and emailing Escape every question you have as Karl has all but called this forum useless. I don’t think he has any idea how many person hours members here save his company everyday answering questions and solving Escape problems.

Good to know, thanks!
I would like to have some custom graphics for my books made. Struggling authors have to find clever ways to advertise.

I have replaced the belly band several times. Since I had removed the Escape graphics, I can use any color I like for the belly band vinyl.

This is the source I have bought from. They have different colors in 1".

https://www.ebay.com/str/babettes?_t...p2047675.l2563

Good product and pricing.

Interesting - appears that trailer does not have the "standard" access hatch on the PS rear either.........


What are the dimensions of that hatch on a 21NE?


Not really a fan of the look/construction of the access hatches - doesn't match the aesthetics / quality look of the rest of the trailer for me.


The front rock guard window may be missing as well?
