My Tungsten Grey PP has the black wide stripes on the hood, Black side stripes and black rocker covers, black GT take-off spoiler, Black honeycomb panel and black trim around the taillights. I think all the black accents look good on my Tungsten Grey coupe. The spoiler really looks great and gets some favorable comments.

Stop, you will make me blush. My wife and I washed the car today and installed sequential taillights. I bought the M&M sequential taillights that have to be spliced into the wire harness. It took a couple of hours but it worked the first time we tried it. It is a great mod but while you are driving you don't get to see them operate. About a month ago I traded my pony center caps for the center caps with Ford on them. Today I traded for center caps with a Cobra on them. I think the black center cap with the silver Cobra looks cool.

I have the 12" Black stripes and 3/8 " pin stripes. 2" space on center and 1/4 space on pin stripes, The stripes look like Judes, which by the way look awsome! I had them installed by a Graphics/ sign shop. I had bartered for them, it took him all day, and swore he would never do them again without a stripe kit. He used virgin vinyl and had to cut them to fit, while a stripe kit is already cut for the contours. The bumpers are the *itch, and told me at least a GRAND to do them on another car!! I would suggest Baltimore street mods, good stuff but couldn't get anybody to do them here. One place asked for 70 an Hr. and two day minimum. I bought a kit, and was about to attempt it but I dont have the patience, so I left the original ones on and had a shop repair what I would call **** imperfections I only saw. I still have the BSM stripes in black. If intrested PM me. They are still in the box.
These are early pictures, the latests ones I removed the black panel on the back and continued stripes.

Will they fit if I have a hood scoop?

Victoria, IMO which we all have one, is go with the Silver...I'd do it if I chose to go with a stripe. Most of the cars I've seen Tungsten go with Black, its a natural fit and its what Ford puts on at the deal for a stripe tape as you know. Silver adds another dimesion to the car and really brings out the lighter side of this color.

I have Torch Red and black stripes. Everytime I look at the car it seems that there is a new
"mark" on the stripes. What do you guys clean you stripes with? When I picked up the car
the dealer had run it through the wash and it had tons of swirls on the stripes. I use the Ice
detail spray, it helps some....but there is still some marks I can't get out.
p.s. Go with the black stripe, it looks sweet on gray.

Sorry I took so long to answer, Victoria RR I don't think my kit will work for you cause the ones I got is for a different rear spoiler, plus no scoop. For that you may have to go to a graphics shop for unless someone in the forum knows of a place on the web you can get them for your car. I also liked the silver stripe but wanted a more agressive look to the car. Good luck !!
