Not only does this look somewhat unfinished to me....but the narrowness of the stripes looks odd as well. It almost appears that they did this to avoid the window wash sprayers? Not the look I want with stripes....but each to their own. B)

 

....And the rear striped view: :notnice:

 

You see this a lot nowadays, stripes too narrow and/or too wide apart. Looks like they ran out of vinyl as well :scratch:

 

This is what I meant when I said stripes weren't easy.

I hope those aren't the accessory stripes that Ford is offering. Please say they are aftermarket!

 

The dealership selling the car (Webster Ford, Webster, NY) says those stripes are NOT the stripes from Ford.

Here's the auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...2&category=6236

 

ewwwww gutterball.

 

Thank goodness they're not from Ford! I really like the Ford accessory stripes. I'm thinking Torch Red with black stripes. I couldn't do these skinny stripes though. Ugh.

 

Nope, I'm not liking that either. The wider ones look alot better in my opinion. I also despise the stripes not going all the way down the bumper. I agree it totally looks unfinished. :notnice:

Hope this is not going to be anyones car here. If so disclaimer is, this is only my opinion. B)

 

I read your post saying that stripes shouldn't be the same width front to back that they will look bad. That is exactly what I had done to mine, does it look bad then??




Mike

 

Same width in back.....



Mike

 

Yeah cheap looking vynel too, poor decision process by the creater.. but heck, they peal right off in a couple minutes..

[EDIT]

Not yours Mike, you just posted right before me....your strips are bout perfect.

 

Really!!! What was the guy who installed those thinking????? I didn't think most people drank on the job....

Mike

P.S. Thanks for the compliment!

 

Mike...I think what Brad meant in regards to the narrowing to widening was that it flowed between the tapered front & rear into the wider body of the car (retro). I doubt that this change in width sticks out like a sore thumb.....probably very subtle just like the overall body line from front to rear. Anyway....your stripe job looks great.

 

I agree, I like how Mikes look alot.

 

Who is gonna buy a half done stripe job. Too skinny, too undone.


Looking out at the 2006/7 horizon I'll be glad to get a striped
Mustang as nice as Mike's.

 

in the words of my brother (who was sick with the stomach flu):

 

Looks like my son did that with a sharpie.

 

Wow that is crap. Once again proving you need at least 8" stripes no more than 2" apart and the must must MUST go all the way down the car...

 

those are the most :gay: racing stripes ever
