MINI racing stripe.

So I work at a sign shop, and I want to get a thick stripe, and a thin stripe next to it over the driver's side of my car. I can easily plot the vinyl, but does anyone know how difficult it is to get the vinyl on the car?

Research some of the DIY threads. I just put bonnet and boot stripes on mine and each stripe had double pinstripes. I had no trouble and completed the job in just over 2 hours. Probably the lengthiest part was getting the stripes positioned where I wanted them prior to applying them. I used the dry method. I've never applied vinyl or stripes to a vehicle before.
