Trivial question I know... But can anyone recommend the best place to purchase the reflective red tape that would go on the rear bumper? Some seem too pink, some too deep red...
Thnx

Re: Reflective sticker
Would the reflective tape have been standard? I have added it to the trailing edges of the doors on my British cars but I never thought about it ever being 'standard' anywhere on those cars.
I have purchased mine as bulk tape from the local auto parts store. The local agricultural supply company also has a good assortment of reflective stickers and tapes.

Re: Reflective tape
Never "standard" but a lot of the works cars had it on the rear bumper, and rear of doors.

Re: Reflective tape
and there lies the problem.
I have existing tape in the usual 'works' positions, and over the last year when i've been next to various works cars the stuff that i currently have seems to be the same or pretty close in colour etc.
However, I'm wondering whether there is a secret 'go to' place to get new tape...or is it going to be trial and error going to numerous different companies in the hope that one of them matches.
