DT3 front fender stripe was created by Phyllo
Does anyone have a recommendation for graphics? Specifically, I’m looking for the front fender stripe for my DT3. I haven’t measured yet, but it may need to be longer than stock as I went to a 74 YZ high fender. I know I can check with local vinyl graphics shops, just thought I’d see if there’s any good suppliers that specialize.

Personally, I wouldn't bother with the stripe for a high fender.
Diablo in Canada do a repro for the standard fender - I'll measure my unused one in a moment and then post the size (it'll be no good to you, as I'm in the UK).
Update.
Total length is 657mm.
Total width is 28.5mm.
Width of black central band is 19mm.
Width of each white outer band is 4.75mm.
These measurements were taken from my Diablo repro, using a ruler and metal tape measure, through the semi transparent sealed protective cover!

I just kind of like the stripe. Since I went away from the original low fender, just thought it would give the high fender kind of a finishing touch… I have the low fender tucked away and can measure it. Pretty sure the new one is longer, so probably just better off going local for a custom.

I got these off of Ebay, I really didn't check them for accuracy though, others can weigh in if there is something wrong.

Wow, nice! Thanks! I took a look at my original fender last night and was a little surprised at how off-center the black is in the white. I’d say one white side might be 1/16” less than the other. Never noticed it before…
