I'd rather go vinyl route and use that extra $$ towards the Bastuck since Julius told me they will have Special GB for Bastuck Exhaust pretty soon
Harris @ In Style is the shit! I got all my roll-call stickers from him..he is top notch, this is a good route to go...

I dropped in off on a Wednesday and picked up after work on Friday. Just have to let them know you're on a tight schedule. BTW I'm not sure if my fin is painted cause I have a cf cover on it that bluesummer gave me.
