Kevin and I have stick on stripes that my Dad made.
Mine are Oyster white (close to OEW) on a blue Bugeye,
5 years now and no problems with the stripes.
With his vinyl, you spray windex on the body, position the stripes, use 
a credit card to get any bubbles out, and when the windex is dry, the 
stripes are permanent. A heat gun is supposed to remove them if you 
change your mind.
Let me know if you want to go this route, I'll give you his email and 
you can deal directly with him.
