    Pics of the new custom racing stripes

    Okay, so here they are. Ill somewhat detail the work that went into this.

    First off, we spent a solid 3 hours making sure EVERY SINGLE MILLIMETER of fine line tape was perfect.



    Then we spent probably an hour masking every nook and cranny off...and i started sanding...


    Daddy [img]tongue.gif[/img] took off the rear spoiler and masked it all off....

    Then the fun began...



    After 4 hours of wet sanding and buffing....and a nice long wash....here we have the result...

    wow. I am a bit of a perfectionist (understatement) and i cant find one flaw. I can spot an uneven decal or stripe a mile away and those 3 hours were worth it.

    Perfect job [img]graemlins/rock.gif[/img]

    cough cough you know i got 50 bucks and i'd be happy to fly your dad out here for the day for a couple stripes... [img]smile.gif[/img]
