I think it looks great, no idea why they don't offer it in our color in the first place.

I'm still finishing up getting my parts, but am doing the conversion myself. I need to hurry up though I've been tripping over the bumper covers for over 2 months!

You'll prolly have yours done before I get around to it, but in my opinion it needs stipes. I was thinking silver on mine, gray might work.

here's mine, the wing is already on.

Looks good .....

Going to order the hood & vents next week. Soon as I get paid and I can decide who is going to paint it. So am getting close. Then I have to wait for my next commission check before I paint it. Gray looks good, but blends too much into the Windveil Blue color. White stands out better but looks a little weird. No stripes looks plain - but the Windveil Blue color looks great on its own. I just have to see the stripes in person on this color. Going to Steeda Stampede this weekend - hoping to see some Windveil Blue stangs there w/ stripes.

It would look awsome without stripes. The car has a lot going for it in that color.
In my opinion the stripes would take away from it.

I will see you at Steeda.......

Too much blue to not have stripes on it. I wouldn't suggest white or grey though, or at least don't limit yourself to those too. Think about silver and also about a darker blue.

Of course with your wheels I think a Mineral Grey color would look nice too.

I'd have to say the silver, I think it blends in a little better and doesnt' contrast as much. Your call though!

Depends on the contrast you want. I seem to be in the minority, but I think black looks good for stripes, even on this light color. Or even the dark mineral gray, that looks good too. But, if you want subtle, go silver, and if you want classic, go white. Black looks mean, so it depends on what sort of look you want, I'd say.

It looks great without stripes... but I voted for gray because it might also look sweet with them

I think the black on Windveil looks best, but a dark grey would look nice as well!
