    Then there's the black stripes on sonic blue

    I like the coupe better but the vert is so much fun to drive.

    myxmach1, do the stripes on your redfire match the color of the lower chin spoiler? Because the spoiler's color looks awesome.

    They look better in my opinion with the Shelby dimensions, but I'm old fashioned when it comes to Mustangs in most regards. I've seen many a car with dual 10-inch stripes and the 2-inch gap (standard) which look like crap when seen next to the ones using the original Shelby tapered stripes. Glad to see you went to the extra effort and expense do "do it right".

    They look great. What is the gap in between and also do you have any tips to offer a paint shop. :nice:

    2" gap. Shop around, I found a shop that has the latest and greatest laser guided system. It's not just for stripes, it's actually for whole body panels to make sure they are straight, but they lay a laser down and paint according to it. As you can see, it worked wonders on my car. Next it goes in for painted calipers and Rousch louvers.
