Laborsmith do you know around how much it would cost to get them installed professionally? I went to the guy who normally does my body work and he gave me an estimate of 200 dollars to put the pre cut stripes on. I feel like thats pretty expensive especially since just the stripes themselves will cost me around 200. I just don't want to buy the stripes and mess up attempting to install them myself.
Go to home depot. Buy some thin blue painter tape, make your stripes however you want them (tape is about ~ $9 a roll for the good stuff). Once you have your lines laid out, mask off the car with some plastic/newspaper (ran me $5 in plastic yesterday). Get some Plasti-dip (runs $5.95 a can @ HomeDepot) in whatever color you want. Paint your car (yes, direct onto the paint) in a nice base coat coverage. Let it dry 10-12 minutes, do it again, repeat about 6 times (you'll have a flat color showing). Once it is dry (give it a few hours) remove the tape... Done, you have custom stripes.
If you screw up, or later don't want them--- they will peel off.
Go to youtube and search "Plasti-dip a car". The entire project will be less than ~ $45*
