I looked up the stripe (8R3Z-6320000-AH-2) on Partscheap.com which is for the V6 appearance package and it's a whopping $285 list price with a sale price of $239.

The more I see this stripe style the more I like it.


I'd just be interested in that flat black scoop, but I'm sure it's an arm and a leg from ford.

^^^^ Even the rear spoiler in the flat black looks really good on that V-6 Pony. The forged wheels are a nice addition as well.

I'm partial to the 69" Mach hood treament.

You bring up a good point, I'd really like that spoiler, wonder how much they go for, how did you find the price of the stripe I can't find that anywhere or the spoiler.

I installed my own stripe.

If you looking for the really large mach 1 like graphic I don't know if anyone sells one, might be a bit to big for vinyl.

Ordered mine tonight from Brian over at Rider Graphix, got it set with custom GT\CS lettering in matte black to match the side stripes. Can't wait to get it on to see what it looks like. Gonna wait on the rear deck delete until I get this one done to see how difficult the install is. Also gonna get some scrap to do the top of the factory hood scoop.

EDIT: Just talked with Brian, they are adding a few more options, two GT/CS, one with no lettering, and a Cobra lettering. Now they can just be picked as an option instead of requesting custom lettering.

Cool, was surprised they didn't have one with no lettering. I like my 281 since I was going to find a emblem for the scoop now I don't have to!

Mine showed up yesterday, looks great. I looked at the GT\CS option that had the paint showing through like the door stripe, but the font seemed a little small for me, so I went with the first option, bigger font, closer to the size of the door stripes.

Will post pics once I get it on today.

Hey Starfire, how was removing your scoop for the install? Anything I should be looking for? Is there any adhesive involved? DId it mount back easliy?

Mach 1

I went with paint instead of vinyl. I continued the Mach 1 theme.

Not really, Best off to remove the hood liner though it's easier to get the scoop off that way, and it just clips back on with 4 bolts.

I went with paint too

I went with a ghost stripe/ flame combo, since I could not deciede what way I wanted to go. One off color that I can prolly never match again.. LOL
