Well, I have enough for black no text and white no text. Still waiting on enough responses for any other designs/colors.

FORD does not own the rights to GT350. That was a Shelby thing. Number of Steps from his desk to the shop.

By the by. How do we sign up for these. Black, no lettering. thx

+1. Just out of curiosity, why does a stripe color like silver not work on anything but a white car?

Preferred method of payment will be paypal to stanggt03@gmail.com

No need to send anything right now, though. I will PM all those that have requested in this post when I'm ready to collect.

According to the sign guy, anything other than white and black allows the pigment of the car to show through, even before the fade. The colors are not fully opaque, and therefore, the car's color will bleed through. White and black are the only ones that are fully opaque. We could sell you a colored stripe for a colored car, but we know it won't look right and don't want anyone to be unsatisfied with their purchase.

Very good. Just let me know when you will need the money and you will have it from me.

I am more then excited about this! Wanted these for some time now and was acutally about to contact a local place to see if they could do them. Feel better now that you are taking care of it as you know what we want.

Thanks!

I explained it a few posts back, but basically, black and white are opaque. The colored ones wouldn't be fully opaque, even before the fade. On anything other than white, the color of the car will show through the stripe. I'd love to be able to sell them in every color. But it just won't work the way you would want it to.

No idea yet. This thread was just testing the waters. 1-2 months is a rough guess. I'll try to get them out before summer, but as you know, that's not fully up to me, but the sign person.
