Default Hola!

Hey everyone. Like everyone else in this area, I'm new to the forum and have a new mustang to boot. She's an '05 GT with a 5-speed trans. So far, I'm loving the car. Before this I had a '96 Buick Park Avenue (it was actually a pretty nice car) and then I inherited my mom's '02 Mercedes C320 Wagon (I really didn't like that car too much). After searching and searching, I fell in love with this:





As you can see I've already changed the headlights, foglights, upper and lower grilles, and taillights.

I do have one question for you guys though: What's the best way to clean the vinyl stripes? I've tried several things but none of them can take the watermarks off of the vinyl.

Gotcha, there is one running around here in northern metro atlanta area where I live that looks similar. You should get wider stripes and finish them down the bumper, if not atleast the trunk. Looks weird from behind then to see them half way on the front bumper. Constructive criticism of course.
