actually, i lifted one side of the car, and had the wheel spinning freely, then put one end on the wheel and slowly put the stripe on and turned the wheel at the same time, so you are kinda looking at the same spot all the time and put the stripe at the same spot...i dunno if that makes sense
BUT, i guess there is a pinstriping tool that you can buy to make it 'perfect' but its a bit pricy for what it is
