Pinstripes for everyone.
Just wanted to show you a few pics of the pinstripes I ordered from twistedchrome.com. Since I wasn't really impressed with the very few local pinstripers, I tried these for something simple but eye catching and am well pleased. The designs are a form of self adhesive vinyl and is really not a decal as such. The result looks very much like it was painted on. I also used 3M Scotchcal 1/16" yellow pinstriping tape for the body panels. Bottom line is if you have a good local pinstriper by all means use him, but if you don't, you might want to try these. If I can do it, so can you...
Have a Great Day,
Milner

That looks real nice. If you hadn't said it wasn't paint, I'd have never known.

Looks like a vinyl applique, where the precision cut super thin vinyl substrate is on a sealed paper background, and covered with a translucent sheet. It will be interesting to see how the vinyl stands up to the south Texas sun. Not saying it's bad, just that it will be interesting to see over time how it compares to paint.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

They sure do look good, Milner.
Who knows, with today's technology they might last a long time.
