Product Color Band Specifications<br />

The following specific guidelines have<br />

been developed for use in all printed<br />

communications.<br />

Preferred Product Color Band<br />

with graduated tone and solid color bull<br />

AFTERMARKET<br />

Alternate Product Color Band<br />

with solid color and graduated tone bull<br />

AFTERMARKET<br />

Product Group / Sub-Brand Color Band<br />

Aftermarket, Defense, Industrial, Trailer and Truck<br />

products are distinguished by a color band 1/4 of the<br />

total format height. This band may only be wider to<br />

accommodate product photos or additional copy. The<br />

preferred product color band appears with a subtle<br />

graduated tone that darkens slightly at the ends of the<br />

band. The alternate color band uses a solid version of<br />

the product group’s color. The CMYK formulas are<br />

shown at right.<br />

Either version of the color band should use a drop<br />

shadow to emphasize the product group brand, create<br />

depth and a separation from the application image(s)<br />

above. The degree of drop shadow shading on the color<br />

band is flexible, depending on establishing contrast<br />

with the featured image. Lighter background images<br />

would require lighter shadows; darker background<br />

images would require a stronger shadow.<br />

Embossed Bull Symbol<br />

A bull symbol, simulating a product-stamped<br />

logomark, may appear as a background element in<br />

the color band to strengthen brand awareness.<br />

The preferred positioning of the bull is on the left<br />

side of the color band. However, if the bull would be<br />

obscured or hidden by an overlapping product image, it<br />

may appear on the right. If the bull appears on the right,<br />

it may not be flipped to appear facing left.<br />

When the bull is used on the preferred graduated<br />

tone color band, it appears in the product group’s color.<br />

When the bull is used on the alternate solid color band,<br />

it appears in the graduated tone darkening to the right.<br />

All color band bulls have a 50% transparency effect<br />

applied.<br />
