Default stripe kits

Do you guys know of any stripe kits for the 2007 dakotas. I just bought a new 2007 yellow dakota 4 door v8.

Love the truck and glad to have a dodge again, but it is toooo plain for me. Plus being all yellow reminds me of a school bus.

I am looking for basic black stires for the truck for the hood and tailgate for now. Being on a limited budget I am looking for low cost ideas that make an impact or a better one. Window tint is a easy one, but anything on stripe or graphics for the truck?

Thanks.

A lot of us order bed stripes from Klings Designs. They are similar to the stripes you would see on the end of a Dodge Ram Rumble Bee. I paid $60.00 for a set and 25 or 30 to get them put on. So for under $100 they are a pretty cheap option.

Thanks for the site. I will check them out. Thankfully for me my neighbor works in the auto industry doing body work and told me would either hel pme put a sticker kit on or paint them on.

Thanks for the help.

Definitely talk to Klings, he should be able to make most anything you can come up with for stripes.

another option, but maybe not as quality, is a stripe kit from autozone or advanced auto parts. they sell a 6 inch wide stripe that is i think 30 something inches long. they are made by Trimbright and cost around 5 or 6 bucks. you can get two, one for each side, then get a 1/4 inche stripe for each side of the wide stripe and have a pretty good looking setup.i have used that brand on other cars and they work very well if you take your time putting them on.

He does custom work too, just give him measurements and your idea and I am sure he can fix ya up with any striping. AllI need to do is get my measurements made for my hood striping

ericemery - Like the stripe on the bed. Both of the trucks shown here with the stripes look great.

Thanks for the info. I will check him out today.
