Very nice stripes and body kit, looks great. I know what you mean about the wheels, I loved the Bullitts at first, but they are just too skinny and too common now.

Looks like BSM only has the 10" and 12" stripes with a 2" gap. So...

I went ahead and ordered a set in 10" and Gloss Black. I can't wait to get them and put them on.

Installing them yourself?

Yes, I am. I've had a lot of luck with vinyl in the past. I use the directions I got from Graphics Express, and their Splash solution, and so far everything has come out great. This is a huge undertaking compared to what I've done in the past, but it sounds like the pre cut sets are fairly straight forward. Looks like everyone who's installed the BSM stripes themselves has done a great job, so I'm going to give it a go. I'll let you know how it came out in a couple of weeks.

Not to mention, most places around here want $400 plus for just the labor, so I think it's worth it to install them myself.

Funny side note, I got these stripes from a local guyand installed them myself, and my pic is on the BSM website.

And here's some other stuff I've done.

Well good luck.

I saw those pics on their website and on eBay. I knew it was your car. I just assumed that's where you got them.

No offense intended, but are you sure those are 10.5" wide? Looks a little closer to 9" to me, but I'm old and blind. Usually, the outer edge of a setup w/ 10.5" wide and 1.5" gap will be right in line with the inner edge of the fog light lense.

Those look like stock Roush stripes which are somewhere around 8-1/2 to 9". The same as the dealer stripes.

Hey AFBLUE, didn't know about the thread until last evening. Had to use my computer at work, since that's where I keep my photos of my car. My stripes details with pics are below:

Painted Stripes
Performance White
10" wide
2" gap in the middle
Side Stripe is vinyl GT Racing heritage style, with no letters or numbers
These were bought at Graphic Express in FL
Here are my pics of my favorite weekend addiction!!

It's funny that you said the side stripes were "not BSM" because when I read the first part, I thought to myself, "man he must have special ordered those because they look nothing like BSM's". Yours are MUCH better, IMO. The BSM letters and numbers look NOTHINg like the originals.

I think we need an official to come out and measure the stripes on all the cars to make sure the spreadsheet is accurate. Maybe it's color and body kit combos throwing me off, but the gap and width sometimes do not always seem to match what I am seeing. I measured mine after the install to double-check, so mine are 10.5 by 1.5.

Good work on all of this AFBlue. Following your info, I was able to decide on the size and spacing I used.

Someone attending the TMS get together in September should bring a measuring tape to verify the measurements
