Thanks for all the replies and the offer JMD. I'll checkout their site later today however I'll likely get the work done locally right after Christmas. The guy said things pretty much stop at that point for a month or so. Makes it perfect for me since I can go in and have it done the same day.

I'm sure you considered this, but I painted my pinstriping. It was EZ. I used vinyl painter's tape to mask everything off, then just squirted paint then clear. The vinyl tape has no glue, it's pressure sensetive, can stretch and be maneuvered easily.
The clear will diffuse any hint of orange peel and even wide stripes will look great. It's foolproof since you can spend all day to make sure the masking is right on. It's also the least expensive option and gives a great feeling of accomplishment 'cause you can see your work everyday.

There is a shop here that does vinyl signs and anything for a car from a stripe to full wrap.It is kinda nice they take a picture of the car then draw on it however you like it print it out and stick it on.They save everything they do so if you need to redo it later it will be the same.Friend of mine has his oval car in a full wrap you can't tell its not paint.
