Default Spearfish pinstripes done

Kind of spur of the moment thing. I like the way it came out.

You shouldn't have to protect it. I read somewhere or was told that pin striping paint doesn't do well under clear unless the paint was made to be coated. Possibly it has to be coated with a clear that won't work with the factory clear. Anyway, just wax over it after a free weeks curing and it should be fine. Great looking job BTW.
