Can't decide on graphics...
As spring starts to apear on the horizon and a year going to go by with my Vista Blue Mustang, I want to start tweaking on it in order to keep interest in it. I've got power and suspension mods planned, but I'm having a hard time deciding on cosmetic mods. I want the Mustang to be a bit more brash. To that end, I'm enlisting you guys to help me look at the two competing ideas with new eyes, as I like them both. These are sucky 5 minute photoshops I did this morning to show you what I'm thinking of...
First up, the traditional white stripes. Would also have a lower front spoiler in body color withthe stripes going across it. This would be the cheaper option, but probably too common:
10" wide pearl white stripes (paint, not vinyl) with 2" of separation. Would continue down the decklid and over the rear bumper, as well. Wheels are BOSS 338s in grey.
Next up, the contender, and what I originally wanted to do. A bit more expensive, but more subtle. BOSS 302 stripes and a shaker scoop:
Again, in paint, not vinyl, though not sure if I want to do gloss black or semi-flat black. Same wheels as before, of course ( I love them). Shelby rear spoiler in black as well as the chin spoiler, and a blacked out taillight panel would round it off.
In both cases, I'm also thinking of moving the fog lights inward to the center, like the Eleanor grille, but I'm not decided on that yet, either.

So far on this and on my other forum the consensus is the BOSS. So I have some feelers out to the vinyl companies to do some in vinyl first, and maybe make some vinyl masks for doing it in paint.

The second picture with black graphic looking so cool as compare to previous one.
I also have a car in black, so i have red graphic on it, it also look so attractive in this combination.

My best advice is to take some pictures of the car. then Photoshop or draw on the graphics you are thinking about. Do not just look at them close but from a distance also. compare them together and do not be afraid to tweek them. if you can not buy them you can always have them custom made to fit your car. When asking opinions on them realize that there are many different people who believe in many different styles so go with what you think is best. You are the one who has to look at them the most.
