wtf.. pinstripe rant.

So this weekend was the perfect weekend to remove the pinstripes. So I start removing the driver side pinstripes, and I stop and look at the passenger sides and they're painted on. Is any of yalls like this? i'm pretty mad because I already started to take off the driver's side. My car hasn't been damaged on the sides of the car ever, so I couldn't see a logical explanation as to why there are two different types.

mine were painted on. you take them off with a rubbing compound if they're on top of the clear. buff and polish and your done.

i'm pretty sure it was a clear coat compound, but you could probably even do a 2000 grit wetsand. you have to buff/polish afterwards because it will take the shine away.
