Best place to buy stripes?

I wAs thinking about getting a single offset maybe in flat black, and run it bumper to bumper, on the black roof, and sunroof too. Who's got the best prices?

You might also check around for some local businesses that make signs or do other vinyl work. I found one in my area by Googling "car graphic clearwater". You also might check the yellow pages. I got my stripes installed - materials + labor - for less than materials alone from some online stripe vendors. YMMV.

I used Lyle- Lyle's Vinyl Styles. He wasn't cheap but my stripes were pretty custom. http://www.lylesvinylstyles.net/ if you're interested.

I have an appt. tomorrow morning with a local company. I'm getting the 'viper' type stripes which are two straigt stripes about 6" side by side, with a narrower edge stripe on the outsides...getting bonnet and boot for a quote of $175. Getting white middle stripes with black edge stripes on a chili red. Hope this helps.

Lyle is great, As mentioned. The price is fair for the quality, nothing but the best from lyle.

Aesthetic Creations, also great graphics, but they are a small company shipping can be slow because of it.

Cooperflags is a NAM sponsor, need i say more?

MINI Motoring Graphics, MINI run graphics can make some great stuff. even have a custom graphic creator online.
