Pin Striping by a Dealer......

Have any of your Dealers pin striped every car on the lot. Where I got my car its a Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep Dealer that is HUGE. They have about 1,000 vehicles on the lot. Every single car has a $65 pin stripe added to it. If you do the math, thats $65,000. Im sure they sell more than 1,000 cars in a year. So, you can imagine how mutch money they are making just from adding a $2 stripe. They will take it off if you want but they will not take off the $65 charge.

I guess these dealers find any little way to take your money.

I made them earn their money. I told them that they had to change the tan stripe on my BB for a charchoal one.

I like the pinstripe on your BB too but I can't believe the dealer would just put pinstriping on vehicles without the owner's approval. If they can do this then what's to keep them from other little modifications like chrome pillars?

That is a nice ride you have Goose.

Thumbs up Luv My Pinstriping (by hand)

Goose love the contrast on your BBC, thanks for the pics .
I also have pinstriping on Mrs SexC, (tan/blk) by Siddidit by hand freestyle. I also had a special touch to the left side of the trunk area, figured why not personalize it a bit since I plan on having it for a lifetime!

Well the dealership i work at does Pinstriping on the floor models as well as add custom grille inserts on most of the floor models as well as anything from 18-20 inch rims from the get go.

I think its nice, the cars look wonderful and we tend to sell them pretty quickly that way.

Goose; I like your attitude, & your style. I would have done the same thing. If I have to pay for it anyway, I'd better get what I want.
Do you know if they are hand pinstriped? If so, that's a sweet deal.

Its on my signature. But ill tell you anyways. 20% all around, 30% front. I have no problem with visibility. Specially with the HIDs. It is great for the sunny Florida during the day.
