Looks great, but I agree with DP, here's a very crumby MS paint job.

i would think if you heat it up enough and use fishing line it wouldnt hurt the stripes. Mel SS might be able to step in on this?

That sweet, I live in the STL area as well.

Last year, me and a few other STL area Ls-4s tried to get a day together meet, eat and take some pics. It never came to be.....

Ah heck, I'm going to create a new post to see if us STL boys can meet up!

Did your stripes come on the car are did you add them?
I would heat it a little and use the fishing line very slowly and if you have any questions
just ask here.

Looks good!!

The only thing I would suggest is get some tint on those windows. That would complete the picture imo.
