RE: Back from paint at last
The paint shop had the car about 4-weeks but I didn't complain because they only charged me $1500 for the stripes. As far as the waviness that is due to pixel count in the photo. The paint shop removed the front and rear bumper sanded down to the base paint laid the strips laid down with four extra coates of clear and wet sanded everything so there are no ridges to the touch - just smooth as silk. At every break the stripes line up perfectly and they are dead on center.
The strip color is the same paint color that is used for the wheels. As far as being purple, its sonic blue but in the sun sonic blue can look purple. There is so much metallic in the wheel paint that you cannot look directly at the stripes in bright sun.
