It is not the same thing as you're talking about but I've always liked the black stripe at the bottom of one of the vans on go westy's website: http://www.gowesty.com/images/cms/large/large_8a12aa2475ee38922ed72ac8fe6da74b.jpg http://www.gowesty.com/images/cms/large/large_0dacc5c6f19b3f336134e6086d1bfad8.jpg Though I think it might just be painted on. It strikes me as being somewhat easier to do paint touch ups on, and it breaks up the side of the van a bit which, particularily with a white AW top like my van has, seems a little like an iceburg when it drives by.
