You sure your paint is performance red? Looks like Laser Red to me...Which is what i have and if thats the case it would look much better with black accents rather than white.

Im second guessing the white stripes on your car man... Theres just way too much biege to be putting white racing stripes on it. Would look totally out of place.

I would say switch you side rockers to white too, to go along but you still have a beige top. Idk man, might wanna consider biege racing stripes?

Well... I wouldn't go by the picture of the red stang' with white stripes. You might be dissapointed. That's a different color red with a cobra hood and an aftermarket bumper. That's a tough call man. White might stick out too much on that shade of red... but I honestly don't know how black would look. How bout a silver.. or flat black?

i agree with everyone else about getting the 8" kit in white. You won't have any problems finding something else on AM to spend those gift cards with.

gears *cough*

EDIT: yeah actually i just saw the pic of your car. Black might be better im not sure though. White looks great with torch red but redfire is much darker so black may be a better option

I always get those two paint colors mixed up. Mine is paint code E9 which looks more like SeanStang's color car. If I do this stripe kit, I would get the rocker panels on the side and the bumper inserts. So, i guess black looks like the winner here with the beige top and I personally am not a real big fan of the beige racing stripes i dunno I am still kind of up in the air as to what color to go for

Ok, I did a little work and I used some white paper to make "stripes" for the car. The stripes are the standard 12". I just wanted to know what you guys thought

I think that looks pretty good man....you're gonna go around the scoop, not over? or did you just do that for time? I think it would look even better with the thin pinstripes on each side...if I do the rallies, that's what I'm gonna do I think...

crzypny232 · 05-01-2008, 01:27 PM

well, I'm not sure what I am goingto do with the scoop. I've seen it both ways, around the scoop and over the scoop and I am not sure which one i like better. Yea, to save time I didnt put the pin stripes in there but i think that I will do that too

BTW SRQ, got for the white stripes definately
