My plan is to strip my car before paint prep begins. Remove roll bar, head and tail lights, sidepipes unbolt at the collector, windshield, etc. etc. I had the hood painted some time ago and come to find out the guy did NOT know how to deal with fiberglass. The paint is in terrible condition after only a couple of years. THIS time I will be sure to find someone that knows and has worked with 'glass' before.

Burning question:
Should the stripes be level with the surrounding paint or should you be able to feel the edge of the stripe? I've seen and felt it done both ways, not sure what is best in that regard.
