No one wants a butt crack, but I want to see the rear window stripe. Best work on the car.

That's a beautiful car!  I can't decide which I like best, black or gold.  I guess I should have one of each.

All right, all right, I'll get one up.  I havn't had time cause I have been battleing adware programs, spyware, and trojans.  Finally think I got it under control though.

I noticed in the first pic that you used the roll of stripe, yet in all the pics it looks like you used the pre-formed stripes with the ends already made up.  So which type did you use?  Either way, the work turned out excellent.  Each turn is smooth, each angle is crisp.  Awesome job.

Its 100% roll stripe. Hammer and Lomileta painstakingly cut and trimmed all the ends just like the preformed ones.

I wish I had a set of them when we did the bumper and wheel stripes, that asphalt as real, real hard. Who ever needs it done and gets the stuff and time is next. Heck if anybody needs them in Dayton i might be persuaded to do 1 or 2. lol

I like mine without the stripes but, if it were black, the stripes would go on.
