Default What Do You Think of My DIY Stripe Project?

Wanted to try something different so I purchased the Foose Strip Kit.

Had my wife help to hold the large hood stripes in place while I squeeged them smooth.

Then I pinstriped around the whole thing.

Super easy to do - if you follow the instructions.

Great Results too. If I really like them, I'll have them painted on next year.

I think I have found a "side gig" which could pay for more mods.

Let me know what you think of my ride. Dave

Looks great! Big fan of those stripes!, ever since I saw the overhaulin' or whatever episode where he(foose) painted those on a (I think) black? stang. May I ask where you bought them and how much you paid. I'd love to have those on my car before making a decision on painting them on. Thank you.

Baltimore Street Mods did custom cut me a set in Dark Gray, but then I saw these on ebay...

Search for "Foose" and you will find them. A Canadian company called "autographixdesign" sells them on ebay for $99.00 - $125.00..

I got mine for $100.00 even and no installation costs because I did the job in my garage about two weeks ago..

They also can be ordered in other colors... Like a Black or Dark Blue Mustang GTwith Silver stripes pinned with red all around!!!

TOO SICK!!!

Dave

Not too bad, but I'd like to see the side stripes extend further back, instead of just stopping at the door. Just seems incomplete, IMO

Looks really good, I like the red stripe that you did. I think you are the first person who ever said stripeing is easy, most say its tedious and hard to do.

That looks sweet dude. I didn't even know they made a foose stripe kit until now. Thanks for the lowdown on the seller, i'll definitely check them out.
