Stripes are ON!! (NO 56K!) Stripes are done!! woo..
(and headers are on too.. but you cant see that)
Exterior "visual mods":
Billet grille
Clear corners
Silver SS badges
Billet Bowtie on rear
Polished maganflow exhaust (beyond what already comes poilshed)
Porter Cable polish job
Full underside cleaning (go ahead.. try and find dirt..)
I'll leave the under hood mods for another post
Just so you can see the metallic flake in the stripes (the other pics dont show it well.. ) And yes.. that is with no spoiler
And the magaflow system... (yeah.. i took the tubes to the benchtop polisher too.. Whats the point of just having shiny tips and a muffler?)
mmmm.. i love black paint!

Had a professional do it, i helped some but basically it required alot of shifting and measuring and shifting and measuring.. etc.. probably one of the only things i wont do myself... Everything is less than 1/16" of symetric. After it was all done, i went over the exposed paint with the PC (taping off the vynl) and made it look like a million bucks again (some small surface scratches were put in during the install process.. but they are gone now)

Seeing as my car is a 2000 with 11k onthe clock.. i dont think the sun will have enough time to fade them for a while!! lol It resides in a garage under a cover for most of its life.. untill i want to have some fun on the weekends

I know that is how mine is too. But either way, they look bad *** as hell. So even if they have to be replaced every few years, who care. Just giving you some insite from my experience with them.
