Looking to add vinyl striped to my solid yellow GTS....First off. I have spend the last 30 minutes searching every vinyl stripe thread I could find. VERY HELPFUL....
However, it seems most people had a pro do this for them, and for good reason Im sure.. I am just the type of person that wants to try this myself, before I go that route..Not so much cost. I just dont really know of a vinyl shop in my area who has experience doing this, who I would trust.. Second, I just purchased the vinyl, and my cost was $60. So, if I screw up, and have to throw the stuff away.. Its really not a big deal!!!
I feel comfortable I can do this. My biggest concern is the naca duct and the bumpers.. I have seen people who cut around the naca duct. While this looks ok, I was going for the "factory" look as much as possible.. I realize we are at the mercy of the material(vinyl). So a true factory look might not be possible.. For the people who did this themselves. How many pieces did you use, in the area? How did you make the cuts? Free hand xacto knife??
I have the measurements as 8-4-8". Is that factory?
Thanks much, for any and all light, you can shedon this...
