Default Custom Paint/Stripes

I have a Laser Red 2001 GT and am looking for ideas of stripes or custom paint to apply. My only rule is that I do not want to do a complete repaint.

I have been thinking about either 12 inch le-mans stripes in gold, gold super snake style stripe, or blacking out the hood and spoiler and getting a decal for the side from a 1969 mach-1 to re-create that look.

No matter what the option I love the look of gold on the color plus it would go great with the parchment interior.

Thanks.

I would pesonally go with white, silver, or black stripes with the laser red. I think gold and red will look like u are sponsored by macdonalds.lol

this paint scheme, adapted to your '01, would look pretty sweet...

Thats the exact mach-1 paint scheme I was thinking of and I'm sure I'm going to do it now with a few small modifications.

also that stripe is a reflector too. if you shine car lights on it it glows kinda cool. looks exactly like my 69 fastback except mines white.
