Does anyone know a source to buy Stripe Patterns? I have a vinyl cutter at work that I can use to cut out my own stripes if I had the specs. I'd like to get a digital vector file that I can use to cut my them. I'm a graphic designer (very experienced with an Xacto knife) and my stepdad is an engineer. Between the two of us we think we can do the stripes ourselves. He's done a great job restoring his '66 Vette (mr. chevy actually loves the '05 Stang!)! Here is the pattern I'd like.

Renee, I am not sure I understand why you are asking where you can get patterns from. I am also a graphic designer and use to work at a graphics store creating, cutting and installing stripes, etc...

You obviously have all the tools so why are you not making your own stripe patters rather than using someone else's?

I'm a little unsure if I need to taper them or not? I was looking at an an old Shelby stripe pattern and for example they get a liitle wider as they go towards the back of the hood.

I saw a stripe pattern on here that I loved. It was a 15" stripe down the middle, .75" gap on both sides then a 1" stripe on both sides. Just wondering if the stripe widths are consistent through the whole car.
