My dad's friend works at a car restoration place and he offered to paint some rally stripes on my car for me for free but i don't know if i would like the look or not so what do you guys think

 

I'd say Go For It.

 

Shoot man I would and for free too! Awesome!

 

if you do it i would remove the pinstriping, its either one or the other in my opinion.

 

Well to give you an idea, here's Mavrickf1613's 2006/2007 with the rally stripes.

The headlights and grill are different, but the rest is the same.

 

You should ask him if he'll put on an SS hood at cost :P

 

I'm not a huge fan of racing stripes, but if you're looking for a different look, go for it. It's your car!

 

If you don't I'll lend you my car for a week or two so he can paint mine

I want to get mine painted eventually, vinyl is only good for so long.

 

thanks for the input i appreciate the advice i think i just might do it

 

If you don't want reflective stripes then go with paint, for free! Do it no brainer

My vinyl stickers were a mess because I got a cheap avery vinyl with permanent adhesive thats why they didn't last long and were a pain to take off.

Oracal vinyl is what anybody wants when it comes to stripes for vinyl, I now have the 7year diesel truck grade reflective vinyl, Now they should last but in the desert with the hot summers we will see how long this time it should be at least 4-5 years so time will tell, then I will paint the car because it will be paid off and due for a new look

Once you do your stripes, then you can match your wheels interior and other pieces and have a nice lool.

What color do you want to get them painted on?

Try to print some of the pics I have from the Montecarloforum gallery of mine or from my cardomain page or look at other montes your generation and print some of those so your painter can see the ways you would like your stripes on.

wish you the best,
