Striping opinions requested
Never was enamored with the black striping the dealer put on my car. I like stripes (particularly on the white car), but this was a custom job vs a Ford stripe package and I thought they were too far apart. Having seen a couple black Mustangs with red stripes, I thought some red with the black might look decent... so I bought some red striping to 'live with' for awhile so I can decide if I want to have it painted like that in the future. My initial impression is, wow... me like. The wider red looks brighter than the skinny, but I think that's a trick of the light. Curious as to what the group says??

And I'm not saying this just because I am partial to Red, white, and black (see my avatar )

I think it looks OK, but I like single color red or grabber blue better. The two tone stripes down the middle look too much like a football helmet, IMO- but maybe it is just me having watched too much football.

I think it looks great!
My Mustang is Kona Blue with the Black Premium leather with GB stripe...Once I'm done with the exterior mods I have plan, I would like to do a BLACK Shelby Super Snake stripe and I'm trying to figure out how to incorporate a "touch" of GB with it. That way, I have a touch of GB inside and out.
What you have done gives me an idea of what to do. I need to figure out how (or find someone) who can do a "Photoshop" of this stripe package to gage how it will look on a KB Mustang.
Anyway, your stripe package looks great...better yet, it looks rather unique...which is something that all car enthusiast strive for

The only thing I might suggest is that you have the stripes stop before the front edge of the hood. Have the red border the black accross the front with a couple inches of white showing. My painter suggested that with my stripes and I think it classes them up. That is, unless your stripes go over the front bumper all the way to the ground.
