Yup, I still have the stock side stripes! As soon as the guy who did my stripes gets a digital printer, i'm going to have him do the side stripes in matching purple.

If I had a white GT/CS, I wouldn't go purple, or any other non-black color unless I could do the door stripes in matching color as well. The pros/cons to the black GT/CS is you can't see the stripe very well, so it allows you to work with color a bit more. I love the way white CS's look with black stripes. If you still are considering purple, look into a darker shade than mine. In my opinion, unless you're wanting the car to get darker as a whole, you need to go with a lighter option. If you have a light car, go darker. It helps to make it "pop" better. Had I gone darker, you wouldn't have been able to see it quite so well and the point was to make the car pop, and show a bit of my personality.

Yes, I agree with you on the side stripe. If I can't get a custom color GT/CS mid-door stripe to match the rallye stripes I'll just go with black rallye stripes.

You can put strips on a Vert. Ford offers hood and trunk only strips as a factory option on Verts.

Yes they are and I changed what Ford did to the 07 black GT/CS's here is what I did to mine, not paint, but decals. Some of you may already know this one from another forum.

I plan on doing the same to my side stripes, but I want mine to fade like the stock CS vinyl fades. I think its a nice look. Since the guy who did my stripes now has a digital printer, I can do that. And yes, they will be in matching purple. =D

I ordered a Vista Blue 2008 gt/cs on Sept. 7, 2007. The GT/CS side stripe, which comes only in black, does not show up very well against the blue color background of the car. I drove the one on the Ford dealer lot with dove inserts, then ordered mine with parchment. Does anyone reproduce a different color than black for the gt/cs fade away side stripe ?

I have a white GT/CS on order and am thinking about changing the mid-door stripe color as well and this is the only company that I found that can accurately reproduce the graphic, so far. If there are others, I'd really like to know about it..... Hope this helps.

I've been to the BSM website and did not see any of the GT/CS faded stripes, but I have not called them. If they can do this type of graphic, please let me know.
