Thanks all! Obviously, I'm pretty happy with how they turned out. It takes a ton of time and patience, but the BSM kit makes it possible for do-it-yourselfers.

REALLY need to know

I replied to your PM, but in case others have the same question...

I did not remove the splitter. I had some issues with those pieces and would recommend you remove before installing. Its not that you can't fit them in, but the splitter just gets in the way. I know that mine is held in place by some bolts and a few screws, so it is easy enough to take off.

These were sold a year or so ago by a forum member. I think the first run faded out sooner, but these were just about perfect. They are unique and I was lucky to get in on the buy.

1. I did the job over three and half days. One day to remove old stripes, 2 1/2 to put the stripes on. Could probably do the stripes in two days now. Give yourself plenty of time with little to no distractions
2. BSM
3. Prices are on BSM's website.
4. Go for it.

I really want stripes but I am so picky that I could never install them myself. Props to you for doing that. I'd measure, re-measure, measure, re-measure a million times, and so on.
