alright guys, im lookin to do somethin with my car in terms of stripes or something to contrast with the yellow. now keep in mind that i'm not doing anything just yet, i just want to know what you guys think. the ones i'm considering are the gt hood stripes or the boss style stripe kit (without "boss" in them). or i can just leave the car the way it is. give me your opinions and post up other options if you have any

I think you should black out the center of the hood going up to the hood scoop(the indented part of the hood) and then do the black-out between the tail lights and tint the tail lights. And do the black mustang letters in the bumper. My buddy had this done to his mustang before he wrecked it and turned it into a faleen. Looked sharp in my opinion. But he had black bullitt wheels too so that helped out the blackout theme. But put a nice set of black FR500's on there and i think your car would look even better. Love yellow mustangs.

I say black out your hood scoop, spoiler & side scoop things and be done with it.

+1 on the black out center of the hood before the scoop.

nice, like the big stripe kit for the machs kinda. I like that too...but i dont think it will look right on the OP's car. Just my opinion though. And where did you find that picture at JJ??? I like that car.

my friend it does wonders...lol ive seen that many times at car shows, and my favorite was on the yellow GTs. it stands out the most and looks the classiest. yellow pulls it off beautifully while still having a look that almost seems as if it was designed that way, without looking like an afterthought.

I don't know how the scoop vinyl would look on a yellow car with a yellow scoop. But it does look like you are already going with a black/chrome and yellow theme. I would keep going with it

Here's a pic of my RED car with the scoop vinyl. But I have a black scoop... I think they look good in the right combo. Black is easy to look good on. DON'T DO BOSS STRIPES!


Let me see if I can find that pic of that really tasteful yellow and black mustang someone posted a while ago... It looked CLEAAANNNN

Nope. Can't find it. The guy had a yellow gt with no spoiler and black decklid with a little 281 emblem. Looked real good.
