Ok done with stripes.. day pics
ok so i decided... since i am a ****ing retard and messed up the top stripes because i did those at night... i am not gonna do pin striping for now... i did finish the rest of the striping though. and you cant really tell the top is messed up unless you look at it from the back of the car at the top.... so what i am planning on doing is... once i get my Saleen body kit on ill redo the whole car with black stripes again and have them professionally installed this time.... hopefully ill get my Saleen body kit within the next few months... i think i am gonna order the urthene kit off MustangTuning.com. well anyways heres the pictures...
these are all the things... i dont know if they will show up on the post... i am not sure how to attach pictures that are to big yet... someone help?

Well yeah for tires I guess get them locally, but I mean there is a lot more then "Just buying tires and hope you get good tires".
For example:
When purchasing from ebay look for the following things:
-Try to purchase from companies or sub companies, such as maybe like a "ebay tire rack", or a like "JoeTire" company, dont just buy them from a user who bought them, didn't like them and wants to sell them on ebay.
-Read the feedback, There are many companies that sell hundreds of items a day on ebay and get hundreds of possitive feedbacks. Read the feedbacks from what other customers said about the tires and their service.
-Check for warrenty, The great thing about companies selling their products on ebay is that they usually provide some sort of warrenty, especially big heavy seller companies.
-If your gonna pay, pay with paypal. Usually if you get an item, and its not what you wanted, you can just tell paypal "The item was defective, didn't fit my car, etc etc etc" and they will usually investigate it and high chanced that they will tell you to ship it back, provide them a tracking number that you shipped it back, and they will refund you, your money. Is it worth the hassle?, some times for great deals on it is worth the hassle of getting them shipped to you, taking them to put them on, etc etc.
-Why do some companies charge so low for items such as rims and tires?
Many companies on ebay are not REAL retail sale floor stores such as AutoZone, Pepboys, etc. I use to be an ebay seller so i know a lot on how things work. Many companies got connections for tires straight from the manufactors or from some hookup who they get at wholesale, and they might have just a really large warehouse, hire only a couple of employess and it let them just ship stuff out instead of buying a big garage, having a sale floor, hiring a bunch of employees, taking care of big fancy buildings near instersections, etc etc. All that brings up the price on products.

pretty cool man... that body kit on that car shown though is HORRIBLE. kills the stripes... but sounds like a good idea! but from what the professional Slappy says... "anything about 8'' inch stripes are ridiculously hard to install on a Mustang". just F.Y.I.
you also might wanna check out Slappys car pictures... his came out perfect... his pin stripes add a awesome touch to the 8'' inch stripes.

unfortunely.... no... because of the fact that some of the stripes came out a little bit off, although there not noticeable... with pin striping it would be way to noticeable that some of the stripes are off... i did take a test look at the pin striping on the car though.... looks soooo good! but ill just wait till i get my Saleen body kit and then redo the cars striping anyways and have it professionally done at that time... and ill make sure the pin striping is put on them.
haha, unless you got some free time to come out to Los Angles California Slappy... then you could help me redo my whole car... haha.
