any competent vinyl+sign shop should be able to apply the pinstriping. it wouldn't even have to be an auto or wheel shop, although that would of course be ideal.

wheel techniques does very good work and is highly regarded around The Bay for wheel repair+painting+customizing, but, imo, it would be a waste to go w/them just to put on some stickies. they aren't cheap, and, again, you'd likely get just as good results somehwhere else. if you're gonna have the stripes painted on, that's a different story tho.


and no need to order the pinstriping online. they sell that stuff for cheap at Autozone, Kragen, and other auto part stores.

I actually wanted to give this a shot with red. LMK when you are planning to do it, Rick.

oooh, that'll probably look pretty nice

I didn't realize you were brining your gt3 out to santana row last weekend. I ended up not being about to make it out

Ustemuf : Good call on the applicator and I just found out Cycle Gear in San Jose carries their products so going to give them a call.

I'll let you know what I find out today and will probably buy some yellow pinstriping to do it myself. Hopefully they sell that application too!

If anyone is interested in seeing this or want to try it on your wheels let me know or PM me. You're welcome to come over and watch me screw up!

John: Yeah I brought the GT3 but couldn't stay long since we had to drive to Stanford for the b-ball game. A few of us plan on going this upcoming Saturday so let's meet up in Milpitas (where we do our Friday meets) and caravan over there?

Right on Rick,

I should be around this weekend so I'll try and make it out. I actually live close to Santana Row, so I'll just meet up there

That's what I thought too. it will be fun trying to do it yourself. Since there not too expensive.
