I posted a couple of weeks ago and didn't get the answer I was hoping for. My parents live in Lake Worth Florida my mother would like to add hash stripes to her 17 Grand Sport the local dealer want an insane amount of money. I don't know of any body shops in the area I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I would expect to pay $300 or less the dealers are asking for $500 if she supplies the stripes I don't know what they are smoking?
I believe this is only a one maybe two hour job I don't understand the pricing. I was quoted $300 from Kerbeck I had them installed last week on my car.

I'd do it for free if local. I installed mine. 10 minutes per side taking your time.

^^^ I appreciate the offer but my parents live in Florida and I don't see either of them doing this themselves!

The guy that applied my window tint applies vinyl decals. Might want to try looking around for a place like this locally.

Anybody who wraps vehicles for a living (as in those vans you see with full graphics) could probably do this in his sleep. (I've got a cousin in California in the business.)

You might also check custom body shops--guys who work on hot rods and the like--to see if your parents could get painted rather than vinyl hash marks.

$500 to slap on a couple of stickers!?. Wow. Mindblowing. Who is the dealer?

Both schumacherchevy and auto nation crazy numbers just to install. I had been looking on line and found a location tint business that does car wrapping as well I wil try to call them tomorrow to see what they would charge.

Do it yourself it's easy.

I don't live with my parents I live in NY. I don't think either of my parents want to try it. I would rather pay and have someone near them install it.

I may have found someone near them I waiting for a returned call.

Literally any car wrap place can do it. Shouldn't cost more than $150-200.

I agree I sent my parents the info for TintWorld which does both tinting and wrapping I'm sure they can handle the job and they are fairly close to my parents.
I know my mother is anxious to add the hash marks I'm looking forward to seeing it done.

Thanks for all the input.

Many sign shops are versed in applying vinyl graphics. Call around locally and ask if they've done automobile vinyl graphics.

VetteStripes.com sell many Corvette stripe kits. Here's a link to instructions for the job you're talking about.
