PPF and Paint/Pinstripes

[CBuff]

I am trying to finalize my new 420R build options and had a question regarding paint/pinstripes and PPF. I was planning on painting the car vintage green with gunmetal double stripes (with graphite pinstripes). I was planning on putting PPF on some (maybe most) of the car. Any experience with trouble getting the PPF to go over the stripes (assume they are vinyl or similar and not painted). I have read on some UK forums that some suggest PPF before with stripes on top, or stopping the PPF before the stripes. Others seem to have no issues with it over (with the exception of taking it off). Is there a general consensus on this? And PPF coverage - Front, lower sides and fenders?

 

Since I was going with painted composite fenders I was going to spray the undersides with bed liner (Rhino liner). Does anyone every address the underside of the tub in a similar fashion? Was also planning on doing without the rear fender guards and just having the PPF.

 

I sound like a bit of a dandy with all this protection. I do like things nice but plan on driving it a bunch on road and track. I am sure I will embrace the "signs of use" as it comes.

First off I recommend using these guys for your PPF kit

secondly I didn't rhino liner underside of my fenders but I used sticky foam from Amazon to line the inside as needed

 

As far as stripes, mine are painted so I don't have a choice and it goes right over them. 

 

As far as coverage, the more the merrier. Since you're committed to it, it will only hurt so much more to discover uncovered areas that get damaged. 

 

Last track day there was a piece of debris that took a small chunk out of paint from my hood louvers. So you can't ever plan for everything.

I did stripes over PPF. Figured it would look better.
