pinstriping...

I want to get a pinstripe on my RED blazer Xtreme to match the gold Chevy bowties(gold metallic) and was quoted a price of 40.00 for the done deal from a very reputable local shop. Is this reasonable? what Q's should I ask about the striping? warantees or anything like that?

it was a $200 option according to my dealership, so $40 is good IMO. Main consideration is to make sure the stripe doesn't peal and that it's on straight.

It's really pretty simple to do so there shouldn't be any real issue.

I've had pinstripes on my car for about 10 years in an outdoor daily driver with no pealing
