I believe the Super Snake stripes are a 12" Main Stripe With .5" Space + a 1.0" Pinstripe On Both Sides Of Main Stripe; 15" Total Width.

I have personally dealt with the decal shoppe and baltimore street mods. Both are great shops with high quality vinyl.

This place is just a little cheaper (price, not quality):

I vote for super stripe as well in a charcoal grey color!

So now my car has new scratches on the roof and more chipped out paint near the top of the back window.

I was thinking maybe just to touch up the paint a little and cover it with some vinyl stripes.

Originally, I was just planning to do a black Steeda stripe on the hood. I like the dark, low key look.

Now I'm starting to consider 12" wide white Lemans stripes, or a single white superstriipe, because of the messed up paint on the roof.

Or maybe there's a way to do something really wide like the Steeda all the way over the roof ad trunk.

I really like the look of the white stripes, but they're a little too flashy/racy for my car.

So what do you guys think I should do? I'm open to suggestions.

Here's pics of my car, and pics of stripes that I like so far.










I'd be ok with removing my trunk blackout if necessary.
My first choice is the Steeda, second is the two-tone.

Well, I ordered some black vinyl stripe material today.

Seems like 3M and Oracal have some decent stuff. I went with Oracal 751. 30" wide by 10 yards.

http://www.oracal.com/products/produ...D=202&tabID=ts

Going to do some experimenting

do blue stripes, it seems to work for the KR. I thought about it once but decided against.

Yeah, having a white or silver car means that you can use many different colors that still look nice.

I've used both 3m and Oracal over the years with great results. Oracal does seem more affordable though.

Ok, got the stripe on this afternoon. Did some fader stripes too. Still thinking about pins and running the stripe over the roof, but haven't decided yet.
