racing stripes on my fox body..UPDATE!

88COBRA · 01-10-2001, 12:12 PM

Well I have called around and received some prices.

More then half of the shops in my area, no longer do the stripes any more.

I was quoted over $1500CDN, he would have to paint the stripes, the panels beside the stripes and sand until smooth.

When I do them, I will go for vinyl. A guy that works as a contractor for my motorsport dealer can do two 6 inch stripes for $250! And he gaurantees they will not fade, peel, ect...
