    Possible Racing Stripes...

    Im thinking of getting racing stripes put on the mustang and i was thinking like a dark metallic charcoal on my black car...

    does anyone know how wide they should be 8" or 10" and how far apart possibly.. maybe 2"??

    here is a pic of the basic stripes i want as well as the red version of my car for those of you who havent seen it.. although mine has the cobra SVO hood which has the scoop molded into it ontop of the cowl.. and still debating on saleen wing or stage 3 wing like in the pic

    saleen wing FTW. charcoal metallic stripes would look awesome...10" stripes spaced 2" apart.....and they need to cover the entire car....front valance to rear valance

    10" charcoal gray stripes (on black) aren't going to "stick out" and be as noticeable as the white on red 8" stripes in the photo below.

    Thanks guys...

    ya im def leanin toward the saleen wing for a sleek look...

    the Charcoal i think would be a good look since it wont be like "Heeey Look at ME!"
    but they will be noticable...

    not sure on rocker stripes yet....

    soo the stripes in the picture at 8" im guessing then?

    P.S. I didn't mean that the stripes in that color combo wouldn't be noticeable....I simply meant that they wouldn't be in your face like white on red. I think charcoal on black is badass!

    My Fault.. i agree with you... dont want to seem like center of attention but want people to stare in their rearview when im comin up on the road n think.. what is this comin up? lol...

    and definately the Saleen 1piece.. its made for the 01-04 bolt holes...

    thanks much for everyones opinions so far.. def helping the thought process..:)
