The main stripes are painted... I just masked the car off, 6"-wide stripes, 3" apart, sanded, then a light watery alcohol bath, then sprayed. The pinstriping is just regular black vinyl, layed it down by eye a day after it was painted.

Still haven't rubbed it down and clearcoated it yet, maybe tomorrow if I'm not too lazy. I did end up doing the front bumper, but I got impatient and didn't sand it that well beforehand. Needless to say after driving a total of about 1500 miles this past weekend, the semi trucks kicked up more than one rick into my bumper and the paint flaked off in a few spots... so the bumper obviously needs to be re-done the same way that I did the rest of the car...
