No offense. [:'(]

I would recommend a pro, but if you do it, just be extremely careful on the placement.

I would pay to have it done then if they screw it up they have to buy you another one. At least over the bumpers anyway, all the flat parts you should be OK with. Just use some dish soap in water and spray the car where the stripes are going, peel off the backing and spry the stripe and apply. Then you can slide it around to where it goes and squeege the water out.

Really...I was going to put black side striped on my red car but didnt think it would look good. Could you take pics of your car with the side stripes so I can see? Also, once you get the racing stripes on, take a pic, i want to see how that looks too. Once I get the new hood on I may put racing stripes.
