Idk. I would go back to the chop shop, but I feel bad bothering Xeno... Lol. So if someone just gets a wild hair and wants to on here more power to you.

My opinion:

Black stripes/black wheels
OR
White stripes/chrome (or satin) wheels

Of those two choices, I'd go white/chrome

I think since you already have the black theme going, you should do those stripes in black. They kind of remind me of my old stripes : )

It looks odd to me. But if you dig it, get them.

I'm told that segmenting the hockey stick as it goes up toward the hood looks really nice. Take a look at this fine example of amazing stripeawesomeness. I don't know whose car it is... but... https://mustangforums.com/forum/memb...re34146-1.html

Okay, enough with the sarcasm eh...

I vectored up about 50 different styles of side-stripes before I finally settled on this and got to cutting the vinyl.

kinda made them like this one: http://www.moddedmustangs.com/wp-con...ar-mustang.jpg

Lmao Fifthwind, your car does look really good. I think the white stripe would look really good if I didn't have the black running board.

But I'm afraid a black stripe would make my car look cheap... I was scared about that with the black rims too, but I wouldn't change my rims right now for nothin!

And Reaper, your car looks good both ways! I really like the Boss and the reverse.. hard to make up my mind... I'm sure other members have noticed.

@Tanner05: Black stripes won't make it look cheap at all. There are certain base-color/stripe combinations that are simply classic. Red and Black being one of them.

Not everything always works well together but red/black certainly does.

I like your car BTW, reminds me of my wife's.

Thanks, yeah I had a hard time deciding what stripes I liked the best on my car too. I must have had like four different stripe combos throughout my time owning the car lol. Here is a better pic of my reverse c-stripes
