Rally stripes are pretty easy to put on. Just line it up with masking tape and lay them down according to the tape. Go with silver to tie in the side ones, would look a little off if you had two different set color of stripes. Order from rallystripes.com.

Not the best angles, but you get the idea. I have 8" w/ pin. That's what I suggest.

Or you could get them painted on. Usually around 260.00.

eh never a fan of stripes unless done correctly should look good on your car though go with grey stripes to match your side there..

DON'T PUT STICKERS ON YOUR CAR!, especially your car. Your Mustang looks good as it is.

ya i dont "Really" want to do it but i have some chips on my hood right in the center and these would cover them up. do you think it would hurt the paint if lets say i left them on for a year and then took them off?
