I happen to own a sign shop and a Toyota Escaper. The graphics are painted on my Escaper and look very novice. You can tell they taped it off before painting, but I don't think it looks so good. As for the vinyl, if you go that route, be sure that you buy high performance vinyl that lasts longer. If you wanted to do a simple stripe, I can tell you where to locally purchase vinyl. You can then cut it yourself. As for removal, vinyl off does work. Heat does too. But at the point the vinyl is brittle and dried on to the vehicle, sanding is your best bet. This Spring I am going to attempt to re paint the base coat of my Escaper. Was inspired by videos suggesting Rustoleum and mineral spirits. I will then reprint vinyl stripes for my Escaper.
