I'm taking the plunge and getting my stripes done. I wanted to know if there are any benefits to of going with Matt or Glossy. Does one tend to hold up longer or look better longer. Does one look more like paint.

I would just like to hear from any of you guys and gals who have had the striped done in either finish.

Attached is the look I'm going for.

Thanks in advanced.

both mine are gloss but matte can look good too based on the color.

 

I was quoted 600 and then got the guy down to 450. Do you think thats about right price wise ?

 

it all depends on the quality of the stripes and the install. I paid 900 for the white one because they had to be specially cut to match the shaker. The blue one I did myself and never again. the wide stripes and the contours were a bear. I would pay to have them installed next time. Make sure they are using quality material but both quotes seem fair since the newer stangs have so many contours to deal with.

 

$450 installed???
What brand vinyl?
Don't accept anything but 3M or Avery.

 

Its is 3M.

 

I would say Gloss, but I am biased.

White stripes should definitely be gloss. I'd only do matte with black.

 

^^^^ most definitely

 

i did mine.. white glossy... but with just few months i got bored.. it s so common and i would suggest u go something other than white.

 

Thanks for all the input on this. I'm going with the Gloss white. Anyone know who sells a GT500 styled rocker stripe like this one? Something with no lettering or logos in at all.

 

Matte rules but only in black

 

Big Worm Graphix here in Fort Worth does. They're a vendor here on this website.

 

Any vinyl shop should be able to make those or you could order 3m gloss vinyl and knifeless take and do it yourself!
