Default Need stripes and HID lights

I just bought a 11 GT premium Kona Blue.

Im wanting a good stripe kit for it. I want it to look just like the GT 500. So i think they are 12" wide.


Also im wanting to know where i can find a HID kit for the headlights HIGH/LOW and the fog lights as well.



Thanks for the help

You can find good stripes at www.graphic-express.com

I recommend www.retro-solutions.com for the HIDs. Lots of people on this site (including me) got them from there and speak very highly of them. They offer a bulb capping service that nobody else does. That drastically cuts down (or eliminates) scattered light patterns.

They looked okay for HID lights.

But does anyone offer a full kit for the fog lights and headlights?

Also how far apart should the stripes be?

Do i need H13 Dual Beam and H10 single beam and have them both capped?


Also will the stick on stripes look cheap? I dont want to waste my money if these stripes look fake and cheap on the car. Am i better off just painting them on? Can i paint them on if the auto paint is that fresh?

When i went to retro solutions they never said anythign about bulb capping when i went up to the checkout process. It did ask me if it was for a 2005+ mustang for the head lights. Is that for the bulb capping?


What about the fogs? They dont need capped?

I'd say go with Stangmods' HID kit. Yeah, it may cost more but, in my opinion, you get what you pay for. I've had my 10000K HID kit for over three years and never once had an issue with the kit. Standmods' customer service is also best in the business!
