The original stuff is Mylar - same type of stuff used for ribbons that you can buy at Michael's.

Now I just need to post a request for a Delorean

Guess I'll be going to Michaels. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction guys.

Someone started a thread in the restoration area about using Colored Embossing Foil. Looked Killer when he was done.

That's kinda extreme, but you do need something besides the ribbon for sure. I've always just used a regular rubber rim strips after the ribbon and been fine.

BITD we used to use handle bar tape, the plastic kind for road bars. Just make sure to have 2 layers, or else the strip will bulge through the holes. tons of colors for that custom look.
