Default Stripes from Baltimore street Mods

Anyone get their stripes from Baltimore street mods? I've been really looking into a relatively cheap but nice looking way to get some stripes on this pony, and they seem to fit the bill. I was wondering if anyone has dealt with their products and had any comments.

I have their satin silver stripes. The fitment was all in all pretty good, however the front bumper really took some finess. Someone nicked one of the stripes on the rear bumper, and the guys at Baltimore street mods took care of me and sent out new ones for $15.

HOWEVER, the stripes on the roof, hood, and trunk lid are stained from god knows what. The car is kept imaculate... It almost looks as if they are from brake dust oxidizing. I have tried a few things to no avail. This is only after 3 or 4 months. I'm going to take pictures of it and ask them what to do...

I have the stripes from them, and they are awesome. I installed them myself.

Got mine from them. Costumer service and product were great! Ask for Joe.

Ruh roh ... not good. I also have their Satin Silver stripes, and finally put the cover on my car after having the stripes installed two weeks earlier. After a few days, I removed the cover and saw a very noticeable pattern in the stripes, where the cover's inner layer was sitting on top of them. So far, it isn't coming off ... even though it may be slightly less noticeable.

Hearing that someone else is having problems with the same stripe kit, doesn't sound promising.

They are excellent, good customer support, cheaper if you buy them off of their e-bay store.

The material for most manufatures in 3M so I think you'll have this same problem with all of them. What you want is to make sure the fitment is good. I had a Graphic-Express kit put on($200) and the install was horrible. I put this kit on myself and if turned out great.

Had my BSM stripes professionally installed, and didn't have any major problems. A week later, the company that did it also had no problem re-setting the stripes at the bottom of the rear fascia with a heat gun, when parts of them started pulling away from the inside radius of the lower lip as the vinyl shrank. Since then, they're staying put nicely ... and several people have commented on how good a job the installers did.
