Jason, your going to want to have them painted on. If your painting the whole car have them put on before the clear coats go on.

If afterwards....... then drive it to my place i'll put them on for you!

I owned a black '72 Camaro. The pevious owner, young lady, had her dad paint white racing stripes for her. Nice, beautifully straight, flat white house paint stripes. Her dad did them with a "very expensive" roller. She was so proud it almost brought a tear to her eye. I swear I could never wash the stripes because they seemed to fade a little every time I wipe them clean.
