I rather a pro do my car becasue i want them to be PERFECT. Juan found me a place that is gonna do it for 200 total for 12" stripes. They are really busy i just havent found the time to get my car in there. The stripes from baltimore street mod are 160 so its basically 40 bucks for install. I think 40 bucks is worth the trouble to have a pro do it. Ill pm you the info
I really don't see the difference in doing only the hood or doing the whole car... once you have one part centered you just line the rest up with those. I do ALL my own work because it's MY car and no one will take more time to make sure it's done right (perfect) than me (the owner). I've never liked the idea of paying too much to have some under payed, ticked off employee work on my baby... I mean what does that person car if it's not perfectly centered... where as I would make sure it's PERFECT... just my .02 -JM
