Default With Stripes or Without Stripes

Planning to either get a 15 Mustang GT Premium or I may wait for a 16.
I have not seen anything about should I have stipes front to back over the top or no stripes at all. I expect this is just a personal preference decision, but I was wondering if anybody has seen a magazine article or an online article concerning this?
Let them Pony's run....

Thanks...

I have seen a few black and magnetic 15s with flat black bumper to bumper stripes. They look amazing. The white with blue stripes on the GT350 are pretty sweet too

There is a white 15 running around here, looks a little plain to me. But hey, I kind of like stripes.

Default personally

I think of stripes make a Mustang more sporty or with some paint schemes a little brightening. Although, some paint colors look more classy and maybe even elegant. A beautiful woman in that little black dress comes to mind.

Im not doing stripes but I'm going for more of a murdered out all black look. I personally like the stripes on mustangs. The more boy racer the better.

Not to criticize because everyone should set up a car in a way they enjoy, but I'm always shocked when I see a beautiful car with the all black look! They remind me of the army cars during WW II that were all military green. I guess I'm too old to get all the addiction to skulls & blacked out cars. As I said, do whatever floats your boat & enjoy it!

I'm starting to favor "subtle stripes", that is like a light gray car, with dark gray stripes. To me it catches the eye like stripes, but has a classy look. I like to see a new Mustang in the stock light gray, with stripes that are the Mustang stock dark gray color. I think it would look great, but subtle. Anyone see a picture of a car like that?? I found a Ford website that allowed you to "build" a Mustang with different colors & stripe packages.... but can't find it now! Anyone know about the site I'm talking about?
