Default White or Orange Stripe

Trying to decide between White or Orange for the centering stripe on a White/Black GT3?

Any pictures of the two?

I guess for the minimal cost, I can just get both and see which one I like better.

How many times do you wrap the tape around? Does the tape at the end, roll or curl ?

Once make the ends meet at the 1800 position and the seam will not be visible.

I couldn't decide on a color, so I ordered this mini-spike tape combo pack to check them all out. Cheapest place I found for supposedly the same JVCC tape on Amazon. $13 shipped for 9 rolls.

You can change the color every month or as your mood changes. Remember the "mood ring"? Maybe you are too young.

What's the actual texture of the tape? Is it smooth? Textured? Felty/fuzzy like alcantara?

I've seen these. They are thick and textured. The stickiness is also just right.

I wrapped mine about two times around.
Really like this tape better than electricians vinyl tape that I used before.
It doesn't shift around and has a better texture.
The adhesive is perfect and the tape looks more like leather.
The color matches perfectly and it has some texture like Alcantara.
Although I have a leather wheel, it still blends nicely. It would look even better
on Alcantara wheel. Now if I could just get my annoying yellow oil (overfill) light to go out!

Can't believe how much it looks like leather.
