Default Putting on stripes

Hey all
I want to put stripes on my Rosso Corsa (Red) Cobra & I'm thinking white is the way to go.

Does anyone have any recommendations of who is better at doing them both in finished product & also cost.

I don't want to pay a fortune (don't really know what sort of price to expect anyway) but I also want a nice job.

Any help?????

Email me privately if you know of places to avoid.

Will try to get it done before the Nationals so that I go faster.

Cheers
Batman

Black stripes on a bright red car look pretty sexy and it's not so common.

I found this one in the gallery: Red and Black

Cheers

Don't matter what colors the stripes are....It's an RMC so will look great anyways.

Doug is the way to go. He is close to you.

Type in stripes on the search bar and you will find a number of links with the specifications of the stripes and gumballs.

Doug just completed my Cobra and I am very happy with the stripes. You will see that they painted the big white stripe down the body prior to the colour going on.



No doubt Doug can put the stripes on in reverse.

Cheers

Bernie

Yeah, I saw Graeme's when it was rubbed back & he had done the pearl for the stripes first, then was going to mask them up for the final spraying.
Thanks Bernie
