Vinyl Stripes ???

[JUCD VPR]

I'm thinking about doing the vinyl stripes on my Black RT/10. Either white, silver,metallic gray, or red but i'm unsure yet. WHat do you guys think the best color combo is?
How much do you think it would cost for a shop to install vinyl stripes?
Anyone have any pics of a black rt/10 or GTS with stripes i could look at?
Thanks guys,
James

I think red would look hot. I'm going Blue metallic on my black gts . I was given a rough estimate of about $500.00 to get it done.

I have been mulling over adding stripes to mine as well this winter. I don't want white as it would look like an FE, I was thinking of black (on a red GTS). Tony the moderator has black on red, I like it very nasty looking.

I agree. Check out the chop someone did in gen3 forum:

I'd say silver or white. I don't really think red would look so hot. The great thing about vinyl is that if you decide you don't like them, you can peel them off and start again.

i did vinyl and did silver on red, and am very happy with it. with black, i would also do silver, if it were me.

vinny, your silver stripes go very well with your wheels. nice choice.

Silver would look pretty good. White might look good also but red will probably look different but amazingly different.

Hmmm i'm stuck as to which color to go with, i'm leaning towards silver, but i think the red would look awesome. What kind of shop does this work, like a detailing shop or what?

 

[Blue Batmobile]

sign shop or graphics shop.

Viperjon, did you mention black on red....

I added pin stripes to my stripes and I think they look great. I have also had many compliments on the stripes. I would like to get them painted on but the vinyl is good enough for now. I paid about $350.

HOLY SMOKES THAT LOOKS NICE!!

I have a 2001 ACR in all red. Only 6k miles. Would it kill the value of the car to add the vinyl stripes or even paint it? Considering Silver stripes for more of a factory look. Although those black stripes look insane!

*****~
Thats exactly what i want to get done. The pin stripes next to the stripes, where did you get the material from? Who did your work in Kentucky?
Your car look AWESOME, i'm so freakin jealous lol

Red on Black cannot be beat - just take a look at MCCannes old VRL car - best looking race car on track

James,
I installed Met. silver vinyl stripes on my RT/10 & the finish product looked
great! I can e-mail you a few pictures if your interested and give you some
advice on installing them yourself since I've already helped other owners
do the same for both GTS & RT's. Good luck in making your decision you really
cant go wrong with vinyl. (Easily removeable)

Bright Blue Metallic

 

[PDCjonny]

Viperjon, did you mention black on red....

Oh yeah, that's what I'm talking about. That looks GREAT *****!
Now who can install them correctly, I know I can't.
Body shop? Who did yours, *****?

 

[Woody]

Thanks Guys! I had a local sign shop install them for me. They have done several, but this was their first Viper. May be why I got the price I did. If anyone wants their info, PM me.

 

[Blue Batmobile]

Love the pin stripes, I may have to go that route .

*****,
Do you have any pics of your car that are straight one so i can see how you did the scoop?

 

[PDCjonny]

Is a sign shop the best choice for an installer? I'm curious why that would be, over say a body shop. I guess because they work with vinyl? I want to have this done, but find an experienced person/shop who won't [******] up the job or the car.

 

[Blue Batmobile]

Correct, my buddy owns a sign shop and vinyl is pretty much all he does.

Yah i'm going to look around at body shops and sign shops to see where the best place to get it done is. The hard thing is trying to find someone who wont rip you off just because you have a Viper. If anything they should give you a deal since you'd be telling everyone who did the work and advertising for them. I just dont want them to screw it up like you said Viperjon

Anyone interested in a group buy?

When you go around looking for a shop, ask if they've done Vipers, if so, ask to see some pics of their work. Good Luck!
