Ranger/Explorer stripes

I have a 78 F-150 4x4 with the Ranger/Explorer stripes. The truck is green with a white cab roof and has green and yellow stripes.

Do these stripes come in a kit that completes the truck or do you need to buy multiple kits?

I just bought a NOS D8TZ-9920000-BG stripe kit on ebay and when I got it today the stripes aren't really enough to even do one complete side. I already emailed the seller, but would like to know if the kit was shortchanged or if I was mistaken in how many kits I needed total to completely restripe my truck.

Thanks,
Sam

The Kit should be enough for:
2 pieces for hood
4 pieces for fenders
4 pieces for doors
4 pieces for behind door
4 pieces for box sides.

It should be a 18 piece kit.

I'm looking for another set myself
BUT, they are Known to Dry out, and become un-usable.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 10-Jan-03 AT 10:10 AM (EST)]guys,

if you have patience and some time what looks really good on the truck is if you tape it off in the same place the stripes used to be and paint them on it looks soooooo much better. the will last alot longer shine brighter and most of all not crack.

just my .02 cents
