Default Pic Request... View from the drivers seat...(with stripes)

Hi guys,

I'm thinking of putting some white GT500 stripes on my deep impact blue Mustang.

Does anybody have a picture of what stripes look like from the drivers seat?

Are they noticeable?

Thanks,

-Ed

Ed, they are noticeable, but that is the only way I have ever seen my car! You, of course, will have something to compare it to if you add stripes. My thought is that the view will become normal after a short time and you will not even notice it!

Ed,

What Mark said is spot on. You will see hood stripes for sure. I don't find them distracting. I've put them on all my mustangs (in various iterations) and now I think they appear lacking without them. Mine is red with white stripes and the wife's is blue with gold stripes (her GT is Ford OEM but not Shelby...but they will look pretty much the same) so if you want pics of one or both from the drivers viewpoint, let me know.

Thanks Mark! Exactly what I was looking for.

I was hoping they were noticeable.

If you do it Ed, show us before and after pics if you can! Always like to see what changes look like!
