Default Racing Stripes Fixed

Well for the time being I know we are in a depression and that is why I am not painting my car, maybe in five years when it needs it.

So the stripes were replaced and I have a friend through the car scene that is very good with vinyl graphics, he said come over and him and I will put them on in his garage, said ok I am leaving now.

We cleaned the top of the car the hood roof and rear, we did the stripes from the back to the front so we could properly line up everything.

I helpd him and he layed them on and two hours we were done.

cost was free and I have pride in my car again and am so happy getting them back on.

There are some bubbles still because it hasn't sat in the sun yet.

My friend at my work who vinyl wraps our company vehicles said why you gonna paint the top of the car if your just goona put the stripes back on. He was correct.

You can't see nothing wrong on the hood or roof. and on my rear trunk lid it just has a spot that needs some touch up paint.

I posted pics with the stripes on today. check it out, my car is back!!!

thanks all, nice Inssanity yea the car is sexier than ever.

The oracal stripes are way nicer and shinyer and reflect awesome.

I am gonna take some good pics of the reflecting stripes before the sun goes down so people can see what I see when driving into the sun light, the car transforms to grey silver color and its pretty cool. I will take night pics of them reflecting too.

Thanks for posting the winners pic space
