Default Racing Stripes

As you can see by my avatar, I like racing stripes. The blue Cobra with white stripes looks cool. I have a white 2011 F-150 Super Crew. I want to do blue racing stripes to do a match (sort of) to my cobra. I don't want to paint the truck, however. I am looking for someone to do the stripes in vinyl tape.

I know they do entire vehicles in vinyl stickon stuff. Does anyone know a good place in Southern California?

I was thinking about BOSS stripes on mine. I also like the foose style. Just ideas.

Roadking, I see your a car guy, and probably don't like little things that ain't right. My suggestion is to check with a reputable paint shop. They can with a little more effort paint the stripes, and clear coat over them. That way their as smooth as a babies butt, and no aggravating wax line next to the stripes when you clean her up. Did this on my old Camaro, and glad I did.

Nice looking cobra, Mike. Tell us about the car.

Mine is a factory five I built in 2003. I built a 351W in 2002 for it. My color is pepper gray metallic with black metallic stripes. My truck is sterling gray, and looks to my eye to be very similar color. I wouldn't mind having some stripes on it to match the cobra.

Lots of pictures of mine here: http://www.prairieroad.com/cobra/

I'll follow this thread for stripe suggestions for my truck as well.
