That guy was a definite "paint outside the lines" kid.

Honestly, I prolly would have been paying the dealership for damages, cause I wouldve beat that SOB like a red headed step child.

Get your $$ back. Do not let a dealer do vinyl work; they don't know how to do it right!!!!!

I say forget stripes; they're getting way too common. Put your $$ elsewhere; start with painted mirrors and maybe CDC classic chin spoiler; at least these components can be painted w/o the need to leave your car at the shop.. Check recent post on painted mirrors and my link on "how to prep". ...Jim

These 2 simple mods will make a world of difference (more than "everyday" stripes) IMO

If you want them installed right you need to get them professonally done. I tried several times and never got it right. I called Brandon at 858 Graphics and he explained to me the differences in vinyl, how it needs to be applied and the tools they use. I took my car in, they had everything cut and installed in three hours without a single bubble. I don't know why I wasted my time trying to install them before.

That looks like something my five year old nephew cut with his plastic sizzors!
If that was done to my car I would laugh in the dealers face and tell him to get that **** off before I took a crap in his wifes car.

Are you kidding me; $220 for stripes and install. And it looks like they did a great job too. How far is it to SD from Detroit.

One more question. Did they cut around the scoop or did they put the scoop over the stripes.

See my thread https://mustangforums.com/m_3581311/tm.htm its something for you to watch for.
