Default painted on pinstriping

Anyone know of someone in Indiana or close by that does painted on pinstriping? I'd like to have mine done but want it painted on instead of the nasty cheap 'tape' put on. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

its very rare you find someone that can actually do it anymore...i know a guy up here that does it...but he does the vinyl stuff too...but i've seen some of his work from 20 years ago and he was awesome!

man it is very rare to find someone that has a steardy enough hand to do it on something as big as a car where as with a bike you can do it in sections.
