Thinking about getting some pin striping done on my car. Does anyone know anybody that has any experience doing it? Not real sure what I want, I would like to talk to someone that knows what there doing. I'd like some work done on my hood and above my headlights, maybe on the deck lid also. Not sure who to talk too, any suggestions?

From the pictures in her blog it looks like she does nice work. I'm thinking about a piece on my deck lid similar to the one in her blog right below the pic of the grill. Would she be able to give me price? Are you going to be at the test and tune?

It depends on how many colors, and how big you want it. A piece similar to the one on the blog would be somewhere between $30 and $60. Unfortunately, we will not be at the test and tune, we are supposed to be closing on a house this Friday, then the work begins! Feel free to drop me an e-mail, I'll make sure Cori reads it and gets back to you. VW1S@Netzero.com Thanks, Patrick

I dropped my deck lid off to Cori this afternoon. She had a lot of pictures of her work, and it all looked very nice. I'm really looking forward to seeing some of her ideas for my car.

Very cool, I am also looking forward to seeing the finished product. I wish I had something for her to stripe.

She had a lot of pictures, it looks like she does some nice work. I have a shifter from a bus coming, I think I'm going too clean it up, shoot it with a new coat of gloss black and have her work on that too. It would be something cool that you really don't see.

A Bus shifter eh? Going for that tall shifter look? I wonder if I can talk Carlos into some pin stripe work on his Buggy after we paint it.

I want to know how to pin stripe too. Would she teach a class on pin striping for the club? I'll ask her. I'm sure we could at least come up with some sort of demo at some point. It's not an easy thing to learn, and nearly impossible to teach. I've picked up her brushes a couple of times and proved to myself that I am not as cool as I sometimes think! Jerry, thanks for dropping your decklid off, sorry I couldn't be there to meet you (work, as always). Cori is excited to get started on it! |

Too bad you weren't around I would've like to talk to you about your car. Cori let me check it out, thats quite the project you have, its gonna be nice when its finised. I can't wait to see some of her idea's. I got my shifter today, I'm going to clean it up and paint it, then see if she would like to work on that aswell.
