Had custom hand painted pin stripes done on Monday. Here are a couple of pics. Red over white, with some silver on rear and on beginning and end of stripe

not going to lie i really expected this to be a thread with pics of your truck after a day of wheelin lol you know getting some free pin stripes from tree branches but i think those look much better than the pin stripes that most of us have

looks good

I have to say I was originally thinking why custom painted ones but now I understand. They do look nice and the ends give them the "custom" touch that you just don't get with the vinyl stripes.

Yeah I really like what this guy does, you can tell him what you want or you can tell him to do his thing. If you look on the tailgate (its hard to see in the pic) the purple is his signature (about the size of a dime)

I don't do pin stripes but I love those wheels.

Kudos for personalizing your truck. The color choices are nice. Curious to know what that cost you, cause I would be very inclined to think the same could have been done for a fraction the cost in vinyl.

Sorry if im being a kill joy. Does look good though.

I have only seen the painted on stripes from back in the day. The modern ones I have seen have be adhesive stripes. Either way, I don't do pin stripes but his look good.

Awesome stuff! Subtle yet classy.

They last, this is my third vehicle I have had done. My buddy has had at least 6 vehicles done by the same guy.

The cost was $100, pricey - yes (3yrs ago it was $70) But I like the look better than vinyl.

I'm not a fan of pin stripes in general, especially on a truck.
But, I have to say those look pretty damn good, for real.
I like the fact that they are custom and not auto store vinyl, that makes all the difference.

Love that Nissan blue paint too, sweet!

 

[OkieScot]

Very nice job and the hand painted stripes make all of the difference. Oh yes, blue is my favorite Frontier color.

Beautiful truck...nice to see some detailed stuff on here instead of $30000 equipment covered in mud. Pinstrip colors are perfect over the navy. Keep up the good work!

Looks like your guy knew what he was doing, much better look than the vinyl pinstripes. Shape looking truck too, haven't seen a navy LE before.

If he goes through a brushless car wash or uses a pressure washer they will eventually wear off, in my experience.

He already answered the question in post #14.
