Warm weather, weekend mod, "stripes"
A record warm day. I finally had time to do the stripes on the car.
Rear window and sides were added today. Front stripes came with the car.
They don't all match, but I don't care. I like the look.

Technical note:
I did the rear stripes using a wet technique. Sprayed the surface with a soapy
water, wet the stripes, and applied them. When they were aligned, I used a squeegee.
For the sides of the car I used a dry technique. Laid out the stripes and pulled off the backing.
Each has its own advantages. Both look good.

Pick the style you like and take your time.
Self installation is not that hard and is hundreds cheaper than the dealer.
