[attachmentid=10357]Snow let up enough to pull her out of the garage and snap a few pics. Just had stripes added, pondering what to do next. :scratch:

Love the stripes, thinking of doing the same with my satin silver. Are they painted on? What is the name of the color of the stripes?

There are rocker stripes and they are solid. They change density based on the lighting. In direct sunlight, they appear lighter.

Thanks for posting your pics. I was very interested in seeing the finished product. I am getting the same thing done tomorrow except 10" wide. I had chosen a dark gray metallic but he called back and said the color I picked had been discontinued and charcoal metallic was the next closest choice. I really wanted a little more subtle color but yours look great.

Thanks Tom,

Donna, My guy gave me a choice between two charcoal grays, I was leaning towards the darker but he talked me into the ones in the pics (Metallic Charcoal). I was really concerned until he emailed me a pic during the install process.

The best part is, if you change your mind in a year or two, you can change them out with a relatively small investment.

p61cbi -- Looks Awesome, Dude. I may be doing the same to my Satin GT. Were
those stripes applied at a Sign/Graphics place? Did they use sheet vinyl custom
cut to match or was it a kit you purchased specifically for the Mustang?

Very cool. They seem to match the Bullitt rims really well.

To address several questions:

They are 10" wide with a 1 1/2 inch space.

They were not part of a kit but custom cut.

They were installed by a graphics shop thats primary business is vehicle wraps. Check out their website: StickerDudeDesigns.com

Cost was $500 and install took 6 hours

I am in Illinois - NW of Chicago

Thank you all for your encouraging comments:

Dave
