On Red, I would lean towards the gloss black, but either would look great. However, with that said, I'm actually looking at flat black for my black Mustang. So take my opinion with a grain of salt obviously.

What is this 303 stuff? One of the things holding me back from putting the matte stripes on mine is the care. If you can't get wax on them, seems like it would make waxing the car a pain.

Thanks for the input guys. I think im going with the gloss black and going to order it in the morning. Have any of you put this on your self and is it a pain to do? I might just pay to have them put on...

There have been several people on the forums that have installed these themselves, but I'm not one of them so no help from me....but interested to hear thoughts. If/When I do mine, leaning towards having someone else do it, because if memory serves me right, it takes around 8 hrs or so......and I don't see myself being that patient.

Will be getting the stripe on soon. Found a guy that is going to cut the stripes out and install them for 400 dollars. I think this is a good deal and this is going to make the car look great..

I did my own. It's actually pretty easy. I took 1 section of the car at a time, ie hood, front end, roof and deck lid and finally the rear end. My car is silver so I went with gloss black. In a couple years I'll peel them off and go with the blue that's on the 500. But if I had a red car I'd definitely do silver stripes. The stripes definitely make the car visible, I get lots of head turning as I drive it.
