Drop the blackout on the taillights and the center panel as well.
The shiney lexan appearance of the blackout panels detracts
from the overall looks in a major way. But hey, its your ride.

And that dealership badge really needs to go also. [:@]
BTW, Your headrests are also uneven.

Hi, I agree that you can't have both stripes and blackout.
That spoiler is going to look great with thethe stripes, btw.

Ever thought of doing some BOSS style stripes that go down the sides? Then you wouldn't have to worry about your cars ***.

It will look better without the blackout panel!

Stripes need to go from bumper to bumper. IMO
I have the opposite opinion. I prefer that they end at the lip of the hood and just above the rear deck lid panel, the way that Ford does them on non-GT stangs. They strike me as a little cleaner, a little more elegant. Bumper to bumper stripes are a bit much to my eye, unless they're on a GT 500.

But if everyone had the same taste, we'd all be driving Camrys.

Oh, and remove the blackout panel. And the blackout taillight covers. No offense, but those may be the ugliest mod I've ever seen.
