Boy, I can't remember where online that I found the actual spec's for the stripes but I remember they're an odd size. If you're using vinyl there are licensed venders with the correct sizing. My paint guy insisted that we paint them on and I'm glad he did. I gave hime the specs, he painted that area white, masked the stripes off, then applied the candy red and clear on top. It was a pain because the doors and fenders needed hung, marked then removed for the finish coats.

No but basically the bottom of the door is the starting point; up maybe an eighth of an inch from the bottom of the door.
