exterior face lift on a 1988

Hello I have a 1988 gulfstream and was thinking of giving it a face lift to the exterior by putting on newer style striping ( swoosh style)and might paint the bottom belly a different color that will blend in with the striping.Has anyone out there with around the same year coach done this? Do you have any photo's of what it look's like? Here is a photo of mine it is in great shape just want a different look.I can figure out how to post photo

    If you're not adversed to Mexico you can get a fine job down there for very little money. They'll do any pinstriping you want based on your own design or they have samples of swooshes they can paint on. It's done with automotive paint so it'll last as long as you own the RV.

    I've had work done in Mazatlan and San Felipe and both times it was excellent and economical. With a caveat or two mentioned in the articles.

    Here's my blog post about the paint jobs I've had done down there starting with the latest job: Paint jobs in Mexico...
    Ya they did a great job but I live on the north east coast and though I'd like to take a nice long trip that's just a little to far for me .
