2 Questions on the GT/CS

Question #1> What color Shelby stripes ??? Black Or Blue. I will be getting one or the other. Let's see pics if possible.

Question #2> Does the GT/CS have a different intake compared to a stock GT?

Thanx,
Jack

Normally on a regulat GT I would say blue stripes, but because of the side stripe on a GT/CS I would say black stripes. IMHO

OK I have a printout of optional equipment for the California Special and it say's: "Larger air Intake".
Is this on the engine...or on the front fascia?

They are referring to the front fascia.

Black stripes on a white GT/CS works every time. Especially since the side tape is weird. BUT, if you were to get a different-colored side tape, or just remove it completely then you could go with whatever color you want. As a woman though, the black looks hot.

If you're getting white I would go with black stripes. That is an absolutely killer combo, especially if you leave the CS stripes.

Althought blue on white looks good, I just saw a GT/CS with black stripes and 20" Foose anthracite rims. Now that was sharp!

Here is another white GT/CS with black stripes. I went a bit further with black Shelby TT wheels and the rear window shades by Roush.

Question 1 > at last a GTCS with Blue stripes!

I picked up my 07 GTCS this week and I love the blue stripes! The previous owner had removed the black side stripes (sad, but gotta be done if going blue man) and did the stripes to reverse-match his blue/white striped GT500.

Jim, car looks sharp!!! Any plans to get blue side stripes that are either OEM style or rocker stripes that say "GT/CS" at the front? It would finish the looks really well.

http://forums.bradbarnett.net/showthread.php?t=453407 Pictures of my car. White with black stripes. I experimented with the hood. White, striped and solid black. Obviously I like the solid black the best.Dave
