IMHO the Stang just looks so much better with the stripes. I like the bumper to bumper "le Mans" stripes but to do it right, they must be painted on.

The GT style tripple solid side stripes look great also. I don't like the "mustang stripes" the dealers put on.

3M decal stripes are fairly easy to install, it just takes a lot of patience. Graphic express has a nice variety of stripes for the '05 mustang including Boss, Shelby, Le Mans, GT and Pony stripes.

I like hood and trunk stripes. Ovr the roof and down the bumpers just seems like to much. Also everyone is doing that. I want stripes, but something different, I just dont know what for sure.

I'm going to go bare this weekend on mine. The only reason I didn't mind the car I bought having the package that included them is because I did want the spoiler on the back. I like the clean look that the Mustangs without the stripes have and I know that 2 to 3 years down the road I would just find them cheesy. I know some people really like them and it's funny to see the poll is really close to 50/50, so either you like 'em or you hate 'em it's a personal choice.

Here's mine now, I'll post a new one after I go bare.

myself...i dont like it at all. I think the car is so clean and has so many great styling points and the stripe just cheapens it up.

My 05 has the strips at the bottom and I love it, I think it makes the car. Mine is black on black convert with the white sport stripe on bottom and I wouldn't have it any other way. It makes the car stand out.
