Default Stripes on verts

First post - I have a white 2006 GT Premium with black top. Do stripe packages other than black or silver in color look odd with the black top. I originally wanted the Ford blue dual stripe bumper to bumper stripes but now I don't know. I'd like some input. I am leaning towards the black kit. Not too much into the other body kit parts but there are some very nice looking pics on this site. Thanks. Jerry

I see a white GT convertible everynight on I-94 west bound on my way home. She has blue le mans style stripes on hers and it looks very nice. Always catches my eye. Nothing odd about the look with the white body and black top in my opinion.

I personally think it would look good.

Worse comes to worse it will look great with the top down.

Thanks for the input - I ordered the black. I'll post a pic when they get installed.

Has anyone ever seen a Vista Blue GT black top Vert with White Racing Stripes? I'm thinking of adding stripes and the white looks so good against the vista blue but I'm unsure of how it will look with the black top.

I've seen white with black top and blue ralley stripes.
I've also seen black with black top and white stripes.

Haven't seen the vista blue version though but I'll bet it looks nice.

Both look very nice especially if you continue the stripe OVER the top of the windshield cowl. IOW the metal rim where the top meets the windshield.
Then skip the top (duhhhh) and conitnue on over the trunk, spoiler and down the rear.

Looks really nice IMHO.

I have the same problem with my White/tan interior vert, I ordered some Red stripes and wonder what its going to look like when top is up.
