Help with stripes!!
do you guys have any sites or vendors where i can see a varitey of diffrentracing stripes for the cobalt? I have a silver lt i wanna do black stripes on but cant find a site that has a kit for the cobalt. i want the stripes to go the whole way down on both sides.
I like the one Dwarf has (has a cobalt on the front bumper inbetween te grills) just cant find it anywhere.
I was gunna do blue stripes on silver but i dk should i do black or blue? or black with blue pinstripe?

I just bought some generic stripes on Ebay and had a local shop put them on.The shop would only do hood to trunk, I did the bumpers myself.
And black stripes look better on a silver car

Ok so a friend of mine has a set of stripes from a mustang he has never put on they are not as wide as the cobalt ones but they have the lenght to do the whole car think that would look ok? just have to cut the stripes down to size?
so wait u just bought the color u want measured itall out the lenght and width then cut the vynl and then put it on? That would be chaper but i cant do anything right when it comes to getting stuff to fit right lol.
I have 2 10 inch stripes going down my car. So I went to a vynl shop and bout 10" stripes long enough to get the whole car. There is no fitting involved, just sticking them on. The prep work to get them straight/aligned took longer than the actual instalation.
FYI they're harder to get straight than most people realize. BallsOutBalt obviously had patience enough to do it right. I took mine to a shop and they're still crooked as hell. That is why I put "cobalt" on the front bumper and the flames on the back- just to separate the crooked hood-to-trunk stripes from the straight ones on the bumpers. Debating on getting them re-done at another shop... or just taken off completely. I like them but the crookedness makes it look half-assed up close
I had a buddy that worked for a grafix shop so I got them for 100 bucks. The material was from lip to lip, but I never got around to doing the rear bumper. Got lazy.
This is the truth.

im not a fan of all the way down.. but the guy who put mine on had a laser graph that was projected on the car... and even that took him a while to get the hood straight... took him three tries, but its f'n perfect whole way down
