I agree, Allot of people have talked me into keeping it the same. Its not like Im trying to fool everyone that its a real GT500. If someone asks me if its real I tell them No it an Eleanor tribute. If its a tribute it has to have the badges IMO. I was thinking of deleting the GT500 from the stripe. Shave the holes behind the emblems, shave the backside of the emblems flush and have them put on with double sided tape. That way if I decide to lose the theme all I have to do is take of the emblems and I wont have to worry about it saying GT500. Thanks for the ideas guys I appreciate it allot. My car has been put on hold for a couple of weeks because the body shop is moving to a different location.

I can't wait to see pictures when you get it done. I will be curious to see how it is all pulled together.

I think a SS stripe would look sweet on your car! Here is a pic of my stripe...
