Maybe it's just me, but I think they'd look ALOT better if you decided to go with them CENTERED on the car...





J/k, think it looks pretty nice actually...can you get the stripes in that color exactly?

I think it looks good. I was thinking of doing the same but just a tad bit darker with the stripes. I love the way stripes look on a wingless car.

I dig it.

Ive been toying with the idea of getting some DSG(or similar) stripes and getting rid of the silver ones. something a bit more subtle like the combo you posted.

where ya gonna buy em from?

I'd do it, I like the way the roush bumper looks with stipes. I'd get them painted on though, because I don't know how you would do the gill like things on the hood with decals.

Mat... I can see the road you are takin with your car... and those stripes arent on that road...

definately NO... well... I betcha if they were lighter... they'd look GREAT...

they stand out too much now... yer car w/ the silver and polished rims has almost nothing dark...

IMPO, that color is wayyy too dark...

photoshop em in a couple lighter shades

I'll tell you what you have to do.. get the stripes... but cut them around the louvers on the hood... something similar to this...

Do it exactly as you have it on the pic. The Black stang's stripes look too far apart.
