Question Stripe Install Price?

What is the most a shop should charge to install Foose Tribute stripes? I'm kinda new to the modding scene and want to get all this stuff done to my car but I don't want to get raped when I go to get the things I don't feel comfortable doing done.

I have installed these and many other stripe kits before. You can expect to pay around $100 depending on the installer. I charge about $75 for a basic install like that.

Thanks... that is what I was hoping to hear... I can get them for about $100 in any color I want, I am thinking red, and I am more than willing to spend around $200 to get them and to have them installed... Should I get it with transfer tape or without? I know transfer tape makes it an easier install but would a professional prefer with or without?

Use the pro for installing.They usually have proper chemicals for removing wax and grease for better adhesion and their experience usually doesn't require any use for templates or guide lines.

I never do installs with no transfer tape. You can scratch the surface or mess up the edges. Depending where you are and the size of the shop the install price could vary. This is going off of this area with mid/small sigh shops. in comparison to my shop. Be sure to get the stripes made for the GT. they are precut and made to fit the curves on the bumpers and trunk.
