Default New stripes, grille and scoop (56k don't even consider it)

So I had pretty much started hating my vinyl stripes. They started getting discolored and cracking around the curves on the bumper so I figured it was time to send it to the paint booth.

My vinyls were 10" wide with a 4" gap and I moved the stripes in so there is a 2" gap now.

Stripes were color matched to my wheels and I added a hood scoop and eleanor grille.

Now that she is finished with all the cosmetic changes, next is performance mods.













And the completed job, still needs some detailing but I have to wait for warm weather.

If you don't mind me asking, how much did the paint job cost?

Congrats man that looks good. Nice color and I like the scoop striped too. I left mine unstriped but I like it either way.

Now that you have her all fixed up how about joining the MF meet and greet I PMed you about, and show her off? Here's the link to the thread. I'd like to see your car in person.

Looks great. Good paint job. The edges are nice and smooth. And I love the color of the stripes.
