Need some advice
I have two choices right now and I cannot decide which I want.
I want to either have full striping going from bumper to bumper. Will be matte black on top of ingot silver.
I also am considering doing stripes all the way except on the roof, where I will matte black the roof fully. Again matte black on ingot silver.
Anyone have opinions or can do a shop for me?
TIA!

what size stripes?shops can always do it but it costs money.doing it yourself is not bad as long as you buy the pre-cut kits.

lol, actually I own a vinyl plotter so everything is going to be done by me. Cost for both is minimal to a point where it is non existant

I kind of like them both.I would go with the stripes bumper to bumper but its hard to tell what the finished product would really look like the other way.

I would say full stripes, the entire vinyl roof would be different, but I think it would look awkward, I did my full stripes and think it is the perfect fit.

Striped bumper to bumper.
Since I helped you on this tough decision,
can you make me up some vinyl stripes for my baby too?
I'll pay shipping. =D

My stripes are more spread out than the OEM stripes so I am wondering if that will be kind of awkward. Maybe I should take off the current stripes and put them on closer together

Are your stripes as far apart as they look in the photoshopped pictures? If so I am not sure but I think I would go with stripes all the way even on the roof.
