Well I spent about 3 hours last night measuring, taping, drawing, and cutting this out. I'm sure it isnt perfect, but it looks pretty good to me. I dont know how i am going to go about doing this, but i might tape the stencil to the car and plastidip or just trace the stencil with a permanent marker and tape accordingly.. The only problem i am thinking about is everyone says to lift up the tape after every application, that would be a lot of tape being lifted up... but i also read i can be very careful and just use a fine blade. I am going to do this today sometime, but if anyone has any suggestions let me know!

EDIT: In the picture it looks warped a little but that is just from being folded up over night, once I pull it, the stencil straightens out.

Progress.. It's actually dark outside and i have 3-4 coats done now, and it is supposed to rain from 1AM-7AM so i am gonna go out there and go slow with 3 lanterns haha. I will try and post pictures when it is done.

Oh and yes every car that drives by slows down and looks at me like im crazy. I think most people think i am spray painting my car lol

Oh sweet mother..... I never thought of doing stripes with plasti dip to see if I liked them. I may just do this now.... Wanted to do 1972 Mach1 style stripes to my 5.0.

Look forward to seeing pics, once complete!
If you don't like it, you can peal it off.

Okay, so the first time around was a big mess, so here is the 2nd time around.. I'll take better pictures tomorrow, if it hopefully holds up again the rain. There are minor imperfections, but i plan on smoothing those all out by hand and a lot of patience... I would not recommend this unless you have patience, and i dont... Also, all of the mosquitoes were really starting to **** me off...

Also the black strip inside of the reverse C is adhesive i have yet to get off from the rental door/ding guards.

That looks good, OP!

It came out better than I thought. I was expecting the plasti-dip to be a lighter shade.
