Rear Quarter Panel Stripe
Rear Quarter Panel Stripe
Well...I backed into a minivan thanks to the monstrous damned wing on my car...and i just wasn't paying attention. I got estimates and its going to be 750 bucks to repaint the rear bumper. I can get stripes (like on the daytona dodge ram etc.) for 360.
Here's some pics of the damage.



Heres some pics of something like I want...



***I forgot to say the point of this thread...can someone photoshop me a pic of my car with a stripe?

Just so you realize that the vinyl is only 2 - 5 mil thick (1 mil = 1/1000th inch) and will not hide those scratches. If you can run your hand over a scratch and feel it, most likely you'll see the outline through the vinyl.

I saw a car just like yours today BTW except it had a carbon fiber hood.
Thats a good shop! LOL all i could do was open up the picture in "paint" and draw on it b/c i don't have photoshop nor do I know how to use it. The stripe will be somewhat similar to what you photoshopped but it will say "SS" in the factory paint color about right under the antenna (on both sides). It also wont continue on towards the front of the car as far if at all. It will also start farther back and down on the bumper due to locations of the scratches. Im taking it to a widely known body shop on monday and it is supposed to be done wednesday or thursday. They guaranteed me that they would repaint and repaint again until I am pleased but I have seen their work and I'm sure it will be done right the first time.

I'm having doubts...I dowloaded "Gimp" and played around with the image i posted at the beginning of this topic and i just couldn't get it to look good...granted...the software is like a fancy paint program...I dunno...I will have a long talk with the body shop tomorrow before I hand them the keys...Pray for my car...lol

Um, No it was funny...
I was saying that someone stole my car, drove it around your place and drove it back here without my knowing.
It was better before...
