OK I'LL POST 'EM AGAIN- Pics of torch red with stripes

Ok already! I'll post 'em again but I expect at least a dozen replies praising my great taste, my great looking car, and the overall greatness of this automobile in general. This week I'm tinting the windows, Blacking out the panel between the tail lights and installing my SLP exhast and sequential tails. I'll keep you posted on the results. I've had the stripes a few months now- about 1500 miles and have come up with my first complaint. The stripes on the front of the car have picked up a few rock chips. I talked to Thunder Graphics about it and they said if it got real bad to bring it down and he'd redo the front and then put clear over them. Just wanted to let everyone know that if you go the vinyl route you may have to deal with this.

The stripes are 12" wide with a 2" gap that narrows slightly toward the front of the car because of the curve of the hood. I tried triming the stripes so the gap would be the same but then the stripes looked curved at the front. I didn't go all the way down the back because I think it makes the back of the car look taller and more narrow. You might have noticed that Ford didn't go all the way down with the GT500 too. I've got the blackout panel on and I think it looks pretty good. Kind of a cross between a '67 Shelby and a '69 Mach1. I'll post the pics soon.
