Well i dont really have a whole lot of cash (college+part time job) but im gettin ready to get some gears and take it to the strip. I'll post some times when i get the gears.

 

i dont normally like the wingless look but that looks really nice...

 

The stripes that I oredered did not come cut to size, you can find some that do but are much more expensive. I paid about 40$ but have seen the pre-cut ones over 200$. The stripes stretch easily to fit most of the curves but it is best to use a blowdryer on some of the intricate ones. If you do it yourself pick a day that is warm and NOT WINDY. The stripes take longer to dry if the weather is cold and you may have to hold some of the pieces in place until they dry, so they dont lift up. Just be VERY PATIENT.

 

wow very good job on the stripes. i am gonna re-do my WHOLE stripes and add the pin striping when i get my car back from the shop.



anyways very nice job once again.

 

Thanks for the compliments... Good luck with your stripes. Just make sure you take your time.

 

ya i did them once before and didnt take my time... i am thinking of just taking it to a body shop and having them do it... so that way even if i see like a LITTLE thing wrong i can blame them...

 

Dont want to talk about engine as it will be off topic but will start a new thread once its done.

As far as stripes on curves trick is to apply heat so it can stretch out so it can fit around the curves. You can apply heat to stripe so it can dry quicker but care must be taken as you dont want to over due it and mess it up. The water,dawn and alchohol solution is your friend and dont be afraid to use alot the more the better. Trick is to use the included squeegy to squeeze all the water and air out. After you are all done wait 24hr make sure car is in sun and look at all the stripes if they are any air pockets or bubbles get a pin and make a small hole and remove air. The most improtant part is to measure correctly as a you will be able to tell if its not on straight.
