Default First time doing stripes and vinyl

So I bit the bullet and decided to order some Sunoco body stripes. This was my first time doing anything like this so I figured I would post my results. Hopefully they aren't to bad. This topped off my day as I changed my O2's and oil today after I got it back from having a new alternator put on as well as the accessory pulley's and new belts. Enjoy!!!

Looks like they went on good! Def rewarding to do it yourself and not half to pay somebody to do it!
