Thanks all,appreciate your positive feed back.:)

Yes didn't fit the front fender as all the body work is going back to the painter to have the pin striping cleared over.

Thanks Leon

The pinstripes were difficult and time consuming...I didn't use a decal kit as such,chose to purchase pin stripes on a roll and do it free hand,copying from previous photos.

Very happy with the end result,but glad to have it finished. ;)

Are the after market decal kits transfers or stickers?

i am under the impression that some of them are water slide decal sets.

you did a very nice job with the tape.

now are you going to bury it under the clear?

Hmmm,the water slide decals would have been much easier in hindsight.

Yes Leon...clear coat is going over the top of them. ;)
