Wow.... looks like most of the car is in matte black. You are planning on changing the bumper etc. to matte black too? This picture looks hot. From what I understand matte black is the new black. I just wanted the strips to be matte black. When you get your CMS4 all done, please forward pics.

tatacountry, thanks. Now were talking. Both look pretty cool. I really like the matte black stips on the hood. The one with the red outline looks cool too. Any pics of the boot with matte stips? LOL. I never thought about not being able to strip the roof because of the sun roof. Thanks again for your efforts.

They have many designs, are very reasonable, and they ship quick. I believe they are located in N. Carolina.
I had a guy up the street that does auto body work install my side stripes for $40 (both sides). I did the bonnet and boot stripes. I watched him do the side stripes and he cleans and wets the surface with soapy water, removes the backing and slides the vinyl where he wants it than smooths it out with a small flexible body filler pad. Looked easy enough and it was. Just have to take your time.

Find a local vinyl stripe shop. Use Google Maps to search in your area.

Oooppsy.... Sorry about that 52804. I missed it.
Bf seems to think paiting is a better choice than vinyl even though vinyl you can easily take it off if you want a change. Painting will cost more than vinyl. Oh well I will have to spec it out.
