I was already to do Red and then I walk into AutoZone and I waiver back and forth with Red and Blue and I walk out the front door with Black HA

I ordered the white decals which will go great with the black. I decided the black will play well with my Alloy Metallic color.

The stickers hold up fine. Paid $8 and they are looking great.

just got mine today, just painted today too. i have white callipers on a LL stang. on the front i put the "mustang decal" towards the outside, and the pony below it. was only able to fit "mustang" on the rears. it looks awesome! people around here doubted me before i started, but were really impressed after the fact. also, lucky for me, i have pinstripes running up both sides. on the doors they are broken and have "ford" decals between them. i am replacing the "ford" with ponies. sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

I have had the decals on my Stang for over 1000 miles and no problems yet. I even use wheel cleaner on them weekly.. My calipers are painter Grabber Orange to match my car. Mixed the paint myself using Duplicolor ceramic high temp engine paint. Alot of people doubted that the paint would hold up, but it has been on there for over 3 months. Still perfect. The ceramic paint has a higher temp rating than enamel. Any Grabber Orange owners are welcome to use my idea. P.M. me for mixing details.


I would also suggest cutting the "MUSTANG" letters down to about 1/8" close to the letters, make a cut between each letter about 3/4 of the way down from top to bottom, center the T on the caliper, and work your way out from there spacing the tops of the cuts evenly to get the letters to contour to the curve of the caliper.
