Opinions Wanted

Since I have got my car I've been wanting to do a modern Boss theme, and am just about there IMO. But I don't want a poser car, especially now that the Boss is back. I've been toying with graphics for a while and finally have come up with something I really like. With that said, I would like to hear your opinions on this stripe design. This would also get rid of the GT badges I was never really a fan of. Any other suggestions would also be much appreciated.

I like it, but the front looks a little odd. Maybe the same width but extend it a bit farther to follow the contours of the fender?

I'm planning on doing something along those lines on my '11. Tried having painted those kinds of side stripes only '95. They aren't what I wanted, kinda off those. I'm now thinking of something diff. But I'll do in matte black. No matter sharing decide, it'll look great!!

Do it. And black out your roof too while you're at it.

I really like what you're doing, but something about the c-stripe looks off. Maybe moved farther forward and/or extend a bit further back.

I like the clean side look. The stripe design isn't bad, but the part I like most is the hood stripes you put on there. Do those and leave the rest off IMO.

Move stripes forward like this:

I like your thinner uh, part. The up & down section.

Like it was posted before, the blacked out roof would look pretty killer, but to me I could go either way.

That said, your head's in the right place.

That's actually the car that I based the design on. I like that a lot. However, when I leave it that thick at the front I don't think it flows with the hood stripes. I adjusted it according to the recommendations given above. This is about as far forward as I can stretch it while covering the emblem holes and not making it too wide. Do you think this one is better?

Very good, It looks good but I think a pedestal spoiler would work better. Except that '10 - '12 pedestal spoilers look like a$$ to me.

Cool 2 perfect Grabber Blue Stangs!

I'm really liking your revised design.....





But I'd be going for these (minus the BOSS lettering) if it were mine

I think it would look good. That said, your car is already bad a** looking as it is. Just don't let it say "Boss" anywhere on the car.

Your car looks great except for the C stripe. It's too squared off. I like the second pic in TwinTurbo's post above.
