Default Boss or Mach 1 Style?

I have been stewing over what style would look better. I currently have the "Boss" hockey stick style side stripes. I thought about changing it to just a straight sidestripe more simialar to a "Mach 1" style. I photoshopped to see what it would look like with the straight sidestripes. What do you guys think would look the best?"Boss" style or "Mach 1" straight style?

Here are the pics of the two styles. Hope this works. I have never posted pictures on this forum before.

I would say this is up to you on which style you prefer. The only thing that I really don't like with the boss stripes is where they end on the rear bumper. It kind of looks like they got cut off or something. JMO

Both stripe options look pretty good to me, but i see a lot more late model mustangs with stripes along the rockers than I do the Boss type stripes. If it were my ride and since I like to be different, - I'd leave on the Boss stripes, however I'd remove the portion that is behind the rear wheel wells. Just looks better balanced to me, especially with your black spoiler and rear blackout panel. Your car looks great - good luck.

I vote for the Boss stripes; but I am a little biased.

Thanks for all your input! Right now I am sort of leaning to the straight stripe.Our localFord dealer has been adding"Boss" inspiredstriping to afew of their V6 mustangs to help with sales. People have been buying them so there are a few of thosearound.Iusually see those andMustangs with thedual over the top stripes in town. That is why I am leaning toward changing it to the straight "Mach 1" style. All I would have to change is just the fender part.

I know, this is becoming an obsession. I wish I could just settle on a look and forget about it! [:@]

If I had a GT, I'd want it to look like yours Pat, anyhow back to the OPs question, I'd do the BOSS minus the ones that lead to the rear fender.
