Blue!

Hey, if someone gets that blue roll, send me a small sample! Please and thank you! It looks pretty nice. Now, if it was purple, I'd be all over it!

That red with the red graphics looks pretty sharp, I must say.

We're getting a white belly band as well as going graphics-free. Who knew they came in other colors, though. Dang!

Yeah, but there's something to be said for the clean white look. Besides, graphics are like shoes. You can always change them later.

Great find, Jim. It's a different eBay vendor; the first one only had black, white, red, and silver, but this vendor (Keith's RV surplus) has red, black, white, blue, silver, gray, dark green, brown, and yellow.

I don't know about seasonal changes, but changing this strip (likely along with graphics) seems like a good way to make a "previously owned" but newly acquired trailer your own.

I'll leave that to a real entrepreneur. I was always an idea man who dreamed up a lot of work for other people to do. I did stay at a Holiday Inn once though.

The red looks great with the red graphics. Maybe I should add silver or neon green to my blue graphics and do a Seahawks theme ......

You're right Dave. It's funny how such a little change can have a big impact on the look.

You can just tuck the top or bottom edge in first, then use your finger or thumb to bend the strip into the other channel. Or, you can use a thin plastic tool, which I didn't bother with. Took about 10 minutes. Lots of colors are available. A 50' roll was perfect for the 19, with about 6-7' to spare.

Thanks for this link - awesome.

I poked around ebay and only found black, white, silver, and red.

Do you (or anyone) happen to have ebay links to any other colors?



and we'll be getting a 21'.... by math (based on what was posted above) a 50' roll might just do it..... anyone know for sure?

thanks.

The link above lists all of the styles from Keith's RV Surplus - just pick out the 1" of the same profile.

Since my graphics are black to match the truck I opted for the white band color so that the trailer does not look like 2 halves put together at the belly band. But if your truck is another color then the band color with the graphics is a great "glamping" way to accessorize. Just like the interior trim, it can hi light your formica choice.

Hi Everyone,

Now that we found out about the different belly bands colours, oh no, another decision to make.....

We really like the white, does the colour hold up, & is there any discoloration with time?

Thanks
