Got quote for stripes OUCH !!
two parallel 10" vinyl stripes on hood/roof/trunk $150 
about a 95% perfect job (some minor flaws on close inspection)
making the stripes work on the bumper is pretty tricky i think. i may have another shop add those, but so far happy with what i've got

I'm a bit concerned with putting them on myself. I don't want to screw it up. [sm=headbang.gif]
There is only one place locally that does it locally....... I'm not sure he'll be happy if I come in w/ a pre-cut kit. He will probablly qoute me another outragous price.

After what I have been told and also seen (from guys trying it themselves) I would NOT try it yourself......for instance what kinda measuring tools do you have, ie - laser measurements, etc to make it perfectly precise......
I am cool with paying a little more money for an awesome job but as I said the $600 is a little steep even if he is a 'genius striper'....

My painted stripes cost me $1,200. I went to a top body shop in my area and the guy did a awesome job. No seams, smooth as glass.

Do your stripes go under your wing in the back? I don't seem to see them on the wing in your sig photo. Nice looking vert by the way.
