Rally Stripes - Paint or Vinyl (tape)?

I want to put red rally stripes on my 1994 Z28 Camaro (down the hood and down the rear deck) and would like to know if I should put one of the Vinyl tape kits on or have a auto body shop paint them on.  Does anyone have any comments/experiences (good or bad) as to which way I should go?  The vinyl kits cost about $200 and not sure what a paint shop would charge (anyone know?).
thanks,

Dont know the price but I would go with the paint job, better quality worth the extra money.

I personally, would never put vinyl on my car.  Paint is definitely the way to go!  It'll cost a considerable amount more, but that's the price you pay for quality. One of the pros of getting paint vs. vinyl is - if you get a scratch in vinyl, you'll have to replace it whereas paint would just need to be clearcoated again or you'd just buff it out.  Vinyl also could crack/fade in the sun over time.  Not sure on the cost.  Sorry.
 
Hope that helps.
 
 

thanks to all who responded.  I think I will go the painted way.

Painting your car would probably cost more but the result is incomparable. Never sacrifice quality for money!
