Thanks guys, I had no real intentions of removing it but I was highly curious about why it was done.

Aerospace 303? i have a spray bottle of that, that i use to clean my dash and stuff inside my car. will that work for the vinyl stripe as well? or is it a specific type?

Yep, spray that on the vinyl stripe and use a Microfiber towel to spread it around. You can also use the 303 on your tires. It doesn't attract dirt and dust like the other tire dressings do. I also use it on the trim around the windows, side mirrors and the black rocker panel.
If you are a member of Sam's Club, they have a 25 pack of Microfiber towels for around $11.00. I bought two packs......with five Fords in the driveway, you can never have enough Microfiber towels.

RE: Side Stripe Question

I love the side stripes. Especially the design on the pony package. I don't hear anybody complaining about the stripes on the gt500, so I don't understand why everybody insists they should be taken off the V6's! Mine are staying!

I don't discriminate, I hate the lower sidestripes on all S197's.

Who really cares what anyone says......the only question I have is R U happy with them? nuff said IMO Later J

Couldn't have said it better. Really, who cares if I or anybody else likes your car? You are the one who has to drive it and be seen in it everyday, so mod it the way that you want it.

Have you been putting anything on it to help preserve it?

I use Aerospace 303 Protectant on the vinyl stripe. If you don't keep something on it, it will crack and peel.

Um......no [

] Guess I better get on that before the darn thing falls off. Or even better I could take it into the dealership and ask for a replacement since it is starting to come off and THEN treat the new one right (along with the other side one)

RE: Side Stripe Question

Yea I was gonna keep mine because the tan stripe looked good with the blue and tan interior, but it wouldn't have looked good with the direction I want to take the mods. I think it all depends on color and mod combination.
