Sharp, Akula. Very nice! May I ask why you didn't go all the way down the front with them? Cost issue or planning on some front end mods?

Very Nice Though!

BTW, who's your chin spoiler from ?

06TUNGSTEN, Here is what I did with mine. Hard to tell from the photos, but it is a very suttle color change from the base color. It is near ghost in person.

Very nice scheme[sm=smiley20.gif]
I normally prefer stripes bumper to bumper on our cars........but the way you did the stop on the hood is perfect. That's a classic stop-stripe design, and it looks awesome. Anyone looking to stop their stripes at the hood should go this route.....works much better than just letting the stripes go to the hood's edge. Sweet ride.

Here's a website that i found where you can mix and match your base colors and stripe colors to see what color and what type of stripe you like best. hope it helps...

Wish I had that site before I put mine on last year, I would have went with Torch Red on my Black.

How much does it cost to have stripes added?

I really debated going down to the bumper. I like it both ways, but the paint guy and several ofmy freinds thought stopping on the hood looked less agressive and thats what I wanted. The cost was $850. I didn't want to advertise that I was much more than a normal GT. But under my hood is a little different from stock. Not the fastest around, but it is fun! Picture below!

Oh, Scooter80, the chin spoiler is from CDC, it is the classic design. It is very well made with a superior fit. No drilling required! And the pic is my Saleen SC. Not a good photo of it! Another angle of the strips.

Cool, thanks Akula. I like the chin too. Not as "flashy" as other out there. Subtle but noticeable. It sounds like that's what you've been going for.
