Which color of stripes?

Hey guys!
Planning on getting my black GT (red interior), upgraded with stripes. Not sure if I should go for painted or vinyl.
But what color to get? Anyone have color schemes or good pictures of my colors with different stripe colors?
Thanks!

Personally, I really like black with 12'' white stripes. I know a lot of people say it looks like a skunk, but I think the contrast is awesome. I was also thinking about a single off-centered white stripe with the small pinstripes on each side

I am a big fan of stripes. I have a black '07 GT/CS. I ordered matte black 10" Le Mans stripes from BSM, but I have been very hesitant to put them on. I'm not as sure as I once was. I think VegasJay has a sweet looki' ride with the white on black. It definitely does not remind me of any skunk. I also like the red stripes I've seen. So white for sure and maybe red. I love the silvers and golds but I don't like it unless it is Shelby or a GT-H tribute. There are two Shelby GT's around here and a guy with a GT-H tribute and I don't want my car confused with theirs.

I like satin silver on the black cars. Allthough I am a little bias.

Hey there,

Personal preference here - but if you can afford it go for the painted on stripes. Two reasons - they LOOK a lot better (especially if you can get them done with clearcoat) - and you have many more choices in color.

Black car with red in terior - why not red stripes? Or, Alloy maybe.

Silver over white will be way easier to keep clean IMO. I have satin silver versus white since every other Mustang I have seen went with white and I am silver.

I went with charcoal metallic (goldish color), 10" Vinyl. Here's an HDR picture, and the last one is the same day I put them on (see the dried up water streaks on the hood)
