Just got car back from the painter. The stripes are 10" wide with a 1-1/2" gap. The color is a custom red metalic. It looks a little more candy apple in the sun and a little more maroon in the shade. I chose the color to complement the red leather seats and it seems like a good match.

Wow, at first I didn't think that I would like that combo. It looks great! Excellent paint job.

Very nice! I just prefer when the stripes are on the top, roof and trunk only. Don't care for them on the bumpers. JMO. Great colors though!

The total cost was about $1,600.00. The job was done with a full sanded clear over coat on all of the panels were removed for painting and sanding. I got quotes from $900.00 to $3,500.00. I wish I could say that it was prefect, but there are a few places where the paint blead slightly under the tape. In other words it is not a prefect laser line in a few places ( have to get real close to see it ). There are also a few places where a little red spec or two got under the new clear coat. However, it is nothing to get bent out of shape about...

In short it was a good quality job, but certianly not show car quality...

They look great. Good chioce on the 1.5" gap. It's amazing what .5" will do.
