Stripes

I would like to get some rally stripes
black on jewel red
but I'm completely back and fourth on where to go and what to get
after tailing to most off my family and friends who know about cars
I've been told to get stick on's which where dealer priced at 500 including labor
and I don't even know how much for getting them painted on and if I were to get them painted on, I would like the paint to be re-done since the 'stock' paint job is poop.
anyone got got prices and perspectives on this?

also add what is your opinion on an off white- pearl white paint job??

To get stripes painted on the hood and trunk and hockey stripes on the sides and cleared over its costing me about 2,000. So about 1,000 for just hood and trunk. Getting the whole car repainted will cost quite a bit and is little silly to do to a brand new car IMO.

agreed, but i bought the car used, its jewel red and don't get me wrong i love the color.
but i was thinking about getting that pearl off whitish color. and getting a better quality of paint.. mine is a daily driver also.
but thanks you for the ball park quotes.

Oh, alright. Sorry I didn't realize you meant you would change the color of the car. I thought you meant you'd just have it repainted the same color. But like I said you will be paying quite a bit for all that work especially if you want it done right. If you have the money and thats really what you want then I'd say go for it. As for just stripes though painted looks much better than the vinyls to me and they are much easier to maintain if they're painted on.

I was looking into having my current stripe kit painted on and was ballpark quoted at roughly $1,500 from a very reputable painter. My guess is yours would cost around $1000 for just the stripes. Painted stripes look far better than vinyl IMO. Good luck!
