Default Painted stripes
Ok Im looking into some more stripes, but I want to have them painted on. When I get the ss hood on I want something like the 35th ann stripes painted not vynil. How much would something like that cost? Should I just go with the vynil kit? Thanks!

I dont think it would be over $1000 but maybe close to the 800 mark. I dont think the color would add to much to the price. Im just guessing though...

Agreed, Neither do I but I do think the stripes look good, Ive never really liked how some of the stripes come up onto the intake(on the sides) or how they get wider as they go farther up the hood.
