Stripe it! The Shelby stripes(or LeMans stripes if you will) go hand in hand with the S197 'Stang.
For your color, I think black, charcoal grey, silver, white would all look sweet on your ride. My choice? I'm partial to the charcoal grey with the Redfire.....good luck(btw are you gonna have them painted on or just the vinyl type?).

On the Redfire I would go with the Pearl White along with a BIG arrow above your Mustang so that the boys in the black and white cars can see you even better. [&:]j/k on arrow part. fd

I have Crystal White Pearl stripes on my VB. It is a very nice color. I think it would look nice on the Redfire, too .

As for tint, I am not a fan of "limo tint". I would go something in the area of 50-70% reduction. But that is just me.

I like the Boss stripes. On your red car I would go with black stripes

Check out the Roush web site, they have a picture of one your color that has silver stripes, and it looks good.
