i have heard 8" stripes with a 3" gap. The guy I had do it only got the strips of vinyl in 14" so I went 7" stripes with a 4" gap and im pleased with it.

I went to a local sign shop and got a quote for $508 installed.

They told me that the reason it was priced so high was because I wanted to the front of the car...I was like..guys..it only six small pieces of vinyl and they told me..because the grill has bends..it costs more.

Of course I told them...thanks..but no thanks...

I would think that the bend they are concerned about is to the right and left of the front emblem. If you look closely at the pic I posted you can see how they did mine.. Wasn't all that hard to do, but to completely cover that inside lip would have been a nightmare. Mine took about 5 hours to do at $75 an hour= $375. However, afterwards they decided to cut me some slack and charge $275. The best thing I did was to take them pics of exactly how I wanted the stripes...that way they new just what they needed to do. They told me that it made the job much easier. If you need any pics to show anyone, I can give you pretty good shots to use as a reference.
