LLaurence 12 Posted April 7, 2013 Hey everyone! I am just getting into the world of car decals and My first client wanted rocker panels and rally stripes on the hood. He loves it... But I'm not too sold.. Is there any thing I could have done differently here or should have done differently here? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

petroman2012 168 Posted April 7, 2013 Are you happy with it? Thats what counts..I am dam picky about what I would call an end-result, so when I am pleased it means(to me) that If it took 1 or 10 trys I will do my best so IT looks like you did your best and it looks good and as long as THEY are keen on it thats the END-RESULT...

LLaurence 12 Posted April 7, 2013 I like it as a first. My problem with it is the hood. I wanted to have the rally stripes all the way down the hood to the grill but I couldn't figure out how to do it with one piece of vinyl with all of the curves and ridges on the car without air bubbles and creases. I applied wet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
security802 686 Posted April 7, 2013 Looks good. I personally like that the stripes stop and don't go into the grille. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

knucklehead 530 Posted April 8, 2013 Yeah, the stripes shouldn't extend all the way down to the edge of the hood. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slice&dice 2,450 Posted April 9, 2013 OIC. No wonder my Google search yielded nothing! I was thinking it was an aftermarket performance-enhancing automotive componenet company, like Edelbrock or Borla. You are to be congratulated for the application, it came out sweeeeet. I noticed that you had to work around the windshield washer spray heads, that must have been tricky. By the way, is it true that stripes make any car go faster? That's what I read on the internet.

OWJones 1,981 Posted April 9, 2013 By the way, is it true that stripes make any car go faster? That's what I read on the internet. No, everyone knows that only a comically oversized rear spoiler will make your car go faster... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
