DId anyone here taper their stripes or are
they pretty much the same size?

They taped off my stripes yesterday and are set
to paint them today but a buddy of mine said:

DONT MAKE THEM STRAIGHT AS IT WILL LOOK FUNNY!!

??

Mine are straight. I saw someone post a pic of tapered ones, trying to mimic the old Shelby but it does not look good on the new stang. That is just my personal opinion.

You should have paid the extra money to have the stripes cleared over, and have your bumper taken off. It just makes for a quality job.

I have to settle for what I can afford. I know it isnt the best but it will look good. I hope...

Money always seems to be a problem its understandable. Hope it looks good.
What color are you going with, hopefully black.
