I'd advise a quality tint shop that also does vinyl graphics(check their work and ask if they give a warranty on their work). I paid $350 to have them installed(not including the cost of the stripes). Although in retrospect, I'd do them myself(I've had to redo the front bumper twice because of damage from crap hitting them). The bumpers are the hardest part, the hood, roof and deck-lid are easy to do.
But for a first timer, it can be daunting. Although ruining a set of stripes and learning how to apply them and getting a second set and doing them right would probably be cheaper in the long run vs paying some one else to install them. Plus Rob at BSM would sell individual pieces if needed instead of having to get an entire set should you ruin a piece(s). Hope this helps. Good luck!

I've been wanting to do some stripes on my car but I'm not sure how I'll be able to do them over the scoop. The ones Ford makes aren't made to go with a scoop. But I'd rather have wider ones anyway. Are the Shelby stripes 10 or 12 inches?
