Got my stripes put on the mustang
« on: November 25, 2015, 03:33:40 PM »
Finally got the stripes installed to give the car a little pop. The main stripes and the rocker stripes are matte charcoal and the pin stripes are burnt orange. I think it came out great and I am very happy with it. What do you think?

Thank you all. I'm very happy with the end result. I have a set of 1" lowering springs coming and then I will be done with the look of the car. Then it will be all suspension components and tires to get this thing kicking more butt at the auto crosses. I really do love this car. Ford really knocked it out of the park.  :rock

Just that hood ... I don't like it. I have yet to find an aftermarket one I liked.

Looks great man - except for that Buccaneer plate..LOL.


Seriously, great looking mustang.  My kid is trying to get me to lower my Shelby but I just can't do it.  They look great but cannot negotiate a speed bump after the intall

It is only a 1" drop but I will have to be very mindful of the front splitter. Right now it clears parking curbs by about 1/4". Looks like I'll be backing in everywhere I can and hanging my back end out of a spot a little.  :eek:

Silver,

  Looking at the stang I cant help but think a matching orange stripe on the rim lip would,IMHO,make it look off the hook!


  I just cant see any other place to do a pinstripe on the side that would look right,but the rim lip....ah that might just be sweet!


    :salute

  PS: not a big fan of black cars but those stripes do make it look nice!

Great minds think alike. I was actually talking to guy that installed my stripes about getting a burnt orange pin stripe around the lip of the wheels.  :aok

Yaq but did you watch the vid???   Not a women in it!

   "black cars" have a different meaning in that one! :devil

 Now you know why I'm not too keen on a black car,they do make good pizza warmers though! :aok

You didn't want to put GT350 handling stuff on it? Seems like they did it right:
