I had a major problem with the stencil/stripe kit from PY which comes from Pheonix Graphics. Cost me a lot of headaches and money. Over $2250 spent undoing the glue and mess the kit left. The width of the stripes were of varying widths from the rear deck to behind the rear window panel. The stencil came off in little peices so Pheonix wants you to send back the whole kit to check it out. There was nothing left to send back so I'm out 225 for the kit and 2K for the undoing. The car had to be wet sanded as the stencils glue leached out into the paint so the lines were not sharp but ragged. The shop redid it all using 3M pinstripe as a stripe guide and the assy manual for placement. That worked great so it only took the 1/2 day to apply it. 1/2 day to reshoot and finish. So instead of saving time it cost me 2.5 days in effort and 2G's extra. I'll fill you in on the other stuff later if you need info. Just wrap the car well in the engine bay, trunk, and interior etc. as the dust gets everywhere.
