Well my body shop gave me the bad news that to paint stripes on my car would be$2800 ! I will probably go with Graphic Express and I noticed that they offer a kit for the CDC spoiler. Do they offer a kit that goes from bottom of the front bumper to the bottom of the rear bumper. It didn't look like it on their website.

I've got all mine painted EXCEPT for the Boss C stripes, which would have cost an arm and leg to paint and clearcoat. This 20 pc kit may be what you're looking for:

I tried, but they told me no. Not the front face of the bumper. I ended up going with Baltimore Street for the graphics kit. a lot cheaper and good quality and they answered all my questions.

Here is the link

They have a pre cut set for the 05

If you still want painted stripes, try a different body shop. I've had quotes for as little as $600 for painted stripes, including clear coat. Granted, this was not removing the bumpers or glass, and certainly would not result in a show quality paint job, but for an everyday driver, probably adequate. Yes, you get what you pay for, but what quality do you need?

I'm going with Baltimore Street Mods and they have a kit for the CDC ducktail spoiler. Robert seems to be a heck of a guy and customer service is great!

BTW I saw a $700 stripe job the other day and it was :notnice:

Back to your original question. I have them and no they don't go to the bottom of the front bumper.

That's the color I would choose. However, they would have to be painted. I was thinking of DSG (Dark Shadow Grey) like my last stang pictured below:

I changed my mind on #19. It would not look right since they are metallic.

Which would be best with my Black GT with Flamed Ponies...
