Hey guys I just thought I would share what I'm up to. I bought some Flat Black Pinstripe last weekend and put a little of it on today but it didnt come out quite like I had hope its really hard to tell that its there and if you were not looking for it you probably would not see it. So Im going to have to go back to the drawing board and choose a different color. but here are some picks of my first attempt I will post some new ones when I choose a different color.

Ok here is some new pics with a different color. By the way I can tell you how hard this is to get everything right.

I like the stripe that starts at the headlamp and ends under the quarter window.

I agree with Toyozki, I think it looks great without the last bit at the end there, good job though man, that looks hard to do!

^ 3rd on the body length stripe. I would like to see them start and end a little cleaner though. Maybe some light razor work to clean them up a bit.

@Rotz I was looking for something a little different than what the dealer normally does by going right down the side of the car. Plus our cars have such great lines I just kinda wanted to highlight them
