[QUOTE=CutterWolf;6291271]Here is what you do, get the 10" double stripe with a 1" gap and 1/4" pins with a 1/4" gap in gun metal gray to match your wheels and get the side rocker stipes removed.

Good call there! I've seen some pretty awesome silver Stangs with darker or lighter silver stripes. My painter is striping my Grabber with FR500 stripe in black for $100.00 next month,I wish you guys lived in Denver because he is always looking for side jobs like that. Being the head painter at his shop also helps out cutting cost on materials.

I had done this Mach type stripe on my 06"Gt and my 07' Gt.Problem with the black stripe on the 06" was rock chips so I kept it off the edge on my 07'(removed the striping last year so I could go black).

I'd be really nervous getting vinyl work done when you live in a neighborhood where the damn kids tag cars for fun...

CutterWolf's suggestion looks killer. Good luck!

Or you could reverse the pin plans cutter said like are on mine...
1" pins with a 1/4 inch gap

(sorry crappy light and camera)

Wow... now I seriously need to consider that dark gray stripe. Maybe with 1" or 2" stripes along a center one.

That is exactly the type of stripe I want on my car, where do I get one?

I think the large single stripe looks the best. After looking at the new Terlingua Mustang, CS8 and several GT500SS cars- that's the route I would go. Your car is white and a blue or red stripe would be awesome!

Here are several pictures for thought:
