graphics in south florida

Hi Im looking for a company who can do some graphics for my car. I want to black out the center of the hood like a boss, I have seen quite a few cars that have done it in vinyl and looks great. I did it once before, but it came all the way down the hood, i want it to square off at the end with a thin outline. I payed 90 dollars last time which was a fair price. I have since moved and yesterday called this guy Raul who does all the striped and he was rude and arrogant acted like he couldnt careless about me and quoted me $250.00 , i was quoted $ 150.00 to stripe my entire car from the guy who did my hoood intially. I would go back to him in a heartbeat, but he is in orlando and dont need to add another 500 miles roundtrip. So if anybody may no of someone who a company in the south Florida area who gives fair prices on stripes, I would appreciate it. And if your thinking of using this Raul character, don't waste your time, He is a jerk!!

Well I live in Clermont on the west side of orlando. Id love to get painted stripes but I can't afford them. Hows the quality of his work? And does he precut the strips or cut them on the car? I dont want anybody getting near my paint with a razor blade.

Thumbs down What is the definition of sarcasm?

  1. A cutting, often ironic remark intended to wound.
  2. A form of wit that is marked by the use of sarcastic language and is intended to make its victim the butt of contempt or ridicule.
** If your going to point someone out that is a jerk, and over prices
his work - then call him out and bash him on every mustang forum.
Maybe this way he loses some business and becomes
humble once again (comes back to earth) and begs for your business.

Am doing you a favor - along with all the other Mustang owners out there.

Talking Taking sides.........

yes am taking your side. But be more specific on who exactly is the jerk and is over charging for his goods and services.
This way the rest of the members can avoid this guy like the plague. There are several members here who are truely commited to providing goods and services which benefit the mustang community. These people still manage
to turn a profit and have excellent relations with their customers.

well i guess that depends on what you want. He blacked out my hood, and he made it custom for me. He put stencil paper on my hood and drew it out with a pencil. Then he cut it from that.

Question Painted Stripes ....

Why not have them painted instead? I've seen stripes crack, fade and peel on other older Mustangs that have had vinyl stripes. I intend on getting mine painted.
