Default Pinstripe, finally

Well, I finally gave up on finding truck size pinstripe and settled for car size pinstripe. I put it on yesterday.






Bear in mind, this is the first pinstripe I've ever put on

Sweet!!! Mine had them on it when I got it, but my girlfriend wants to get some put on hers. How much do they cost and how hard are they to do?

I think the roll was something like 5 bucks. Its not hard to put on. You just measure where you want it to go and mark it with a dry erase marker. I went by the fade lines where the old pinstripe was. The hardest part about it is getting out the bubbles and making curves. the roll comes with contact tape and its stretchy like the pinstripe itself, so that makes it easier. I tried freehanding the curves, but I made a mess, but I think thats why they give you 25 feet of it.

I agree. Not very easy to do if you don't have a steady hand!
