Rally stripe help

Yamifz1 · Dec 30, 2013

I have been going back and forth on getting rally stripes on my truck and then I saw this section and thought that with a little help from people who are far more talented than me on the computer I could see what my truck would look like with the stripes.
Here is a picture of the stripes that I was thinking of getting put onto my truck except I want them on the sides of the center pillar and maybe just a bit wider.

Her is my truck if you could do something on the front and back...Thanks

Not the best of pictures but hopefully you can work with it.

tomorrow ill snap some pics of my truck and add the strips for you. I have the exact same color truck you do, this will not be hard at all!

I havent forgot some things came up I should have it done by wednesday!

Just to let you know the nose or grill on these things are a ***** to lay stripes on had mine came out perfect but guy struggled with the cross part on the grill

Hopefully he can make it work, I am not having it go down the middle onto the vertical and horizontal. I am making the gap wider in the middle, the same width as the up and down center portion this way he won't have to try and work it around the corners.

this is how mine was done

Yamifz1 · Jan 6, 2014

they look awesome, I plan on making the gap in the middle larger so that he doesn't have to struggle with the corners where the vertical and horizontal grille members meet. you have the vinyl stripes and he was able to work the corners, must have been a real b__ch to get it done, but looks like it turned out great.

Ya the grill alone took him 4 hours lol but i had it off the truck with the honeycombs removed so that made it a wee bit easier

Sladerade · Jan 6, 2014

Here is the front! The color will be off on the grill because I took your grill, mine is chrome and yours is painted.

Yamifz1 · Jan 6, 2014

That looks awesome!!1Thanks for doing that for me..I have scheduled it to be done on Friday. I will post pictures once it is done.

thought you wanted it wider and how much it costing you just curious

Sladerade · Jan 8, 2014

Anytime, if you need the strips in a different location or wider or narrower let me know

Wait a second... I'm posting from an iPhone?

Yamifz1 · Jan 8, 2014

You are right Blackout I did want the stripes on the outside of the center pillar in the grille and the rear does not cover the bumper, but I did not want to complain as this was a favour and I really appreciate it. Sladerade if you could move the stripes wider apart and not covering the rear bumper that would be fantastic.
I was quoted $300.00 to get it done.

How does this work?

Yamifz1 · Jan 9, 2014

That looks really good. That is further apart than what I was wanting but now that I see it like that I have til tomorrow at 0930 to decide which way I want to go with it.

Sladerade · Jan 9, 2014

Yamifz1 · Jan 9, 2014

Tuck the stripes closer together, keep the grille center blue, and thin the outsides to end where the hood bump borders so I can see what that looks like.

So after all the work you put in changing the rally stripes for, really appreciate it by the way, when I get to the shop and the guy gets a close look at the truck he decides that he has to put them closer together because of the slope in the hood. He figured it would be easier to do the grill than try and conform the vinyl to the curvature in the hood...boys was he wrong. It took a total of about 8 1/2 hours to do it but he was really good about it and did not increase the price despite the fact it took him twice as long as he had anticipated.
So as promised here are pictures of the truck with the new stripes...Oh ya truck is dirty but can't be helped with all the melting going on right now.
