Ok, so I've sent the sign shop a couple of files of what I'm looking for, and they should be getting back to me in a day or so to see if they can make the stripes for me. It's funny. I found them on the internet and sent them a quote request. They emailed me back and I come to learn that they're about 10 minutes from me! No shipping if they can do it, so that's nice. If they cannot, I'll check with a few more sign shops around here. If all else fails, I can email the people at Auto Trim Design, but to offer the stripes to you for under $100, I'd have to just sell them my design. Anyway, I thought I'd make my own post instead of bogarting Taco Bill's. Here's a couple of the images I sent to the sign company.

 

Keep us posted on this, Steve. I'm interested!

 

I got an email back from the place. I've sent them a few more examples. She said they should have a quote for me tomorrow.

Here's one I'm thinking about for our car, though with ours, I'll actually have to have them make a paint mask so I can have it done with paint to match the top stripes.

 

Man, you are good at designing these.

 

Very clean looking! Nice looking text font too.

For me, guess there shouldn't be an issue getting close to gloss white.

 

"For us" is more like it. I hope they offer two designs cause we can't have the same, same, right?

At least our Rally/Racing/Le mans stripes are different sizes (my skinny white Roush stripes are en-route).

 

Thanks guys. I should have my quote tonight. What designs would you like to see? Oh yeah, the font is the Nokia font used for the MUSTANG script. Got it right here from TMS in the download section

 

I'm still up in the air as to what text I want (if any). Hopefully I'll think of one by the time you get pricing.

Thanks again Steve for doing all this leg work.

 

Very nice job on the stripes. Awesome car too, by the way.

Any threads around here that have full pictures of your car?

 

No problem on the legwork. I'll just be glad to see a design of mine on someone's car. I designed a center cap but never heard back from the guy or saw a picture of the completed product.

Mike, click on the links in my signature. There's pictures on both of those sites.

 

Must be another one of those days... I completely missed those links! Thanks.

 

Please keep us informed, I would love to have a set in Blue.

 

Blue will probably not be possible, with a fade. I will talk with the sign people, but the fade can probably not be achieved with any color other than black and white, which is why Ford did not offer it in other colors. If not, would you guys that are interested in colors be interested in normal stripes, too? I've kind of looked around at what's out there, and I don't like any of it. The fonts are cheesy, the pony's are tacky. Most of them just aren't being done right.

 

I never really looked into getting rocker panel stripes, but these fading stripes look really good on MG. I wouldnt mind some fading black stripes , I just dont know what to put down for text.

 

Would they be able to do matte black???

 

I'd like to see the Steeda design without the Steeda logo..

 

Matte black will definitely be an option, no matter who I end up using.

And Green Cobra, you're saying maybe a fading stripe with no pin stripes. Just essentially one fat stripe?

Here's the Steeda-type stripe I think you're talking about


Some Mustang letters

 

Count me in on these then.

 

That first photo looks like what I'm talking about.

 

Steve, any word back from your graphics guy?
