Talking Need Some Honest Opinions!

I've been thinking of adding some chrome or stainless steel bumper inserts (mustang lettering) on my notch. I really don't know if they'll look any good or not. Let me know what you think! Thanks

And here's some pics to help you decide!

I'd paint the black trim around the car blue to match the car... then redo the area around the "mustang" letters by stopping the stripes just above the letters then continuing the stripes just below the letters, leaving the letters blue like the car, then add white inserts
But yea, that'd be a lot of work. Therefore I agree with Glenn, black would probly look the best.

The letters in chrom,e could bring out your Cobra R's but I think I would do is let the letters be the same Soniic Blue as your car!!!!

are your stripes vinyl or painted? if they are vinyl i would take the car to a graphics place and have them cut out the lettering covered by the stripes. i think the chrome inserts would take away from the car. would look tacked on. if the car didnt have stripes i would go with the chrome

They are painted according to his signature.

I would definately match them sonic blue.

Hmm, on second thought if you do match them sonic blue, the "T" in Mustang won't show.


I agree with Laser98

Ok, thanks everyone. I think I'll just leave it the way it is. I like how the stripes are continuous, and don't stop, so I don't think I'd redo that. I'll probabaly just put my money into other stuff for the car.

IMO, even if it said "Cobra" - don't do it.
