My Candy convertible

Photos taken right after I brought it home....still had temp plate. Since then I've put on the SVT GT500 axle back exhaust (sounds great!). Next up is a CAI and tune.

Looking sharp!

What stripe kit is that/what vendor?

I'm expecting my Candy hardtop some time in the next few weeks, and have pretty much convinced myself I need a stripe kit to dress it up.

It's not a stripe kit. I took it to a local automotive graphics shop. The carbon fiber is a special 3M vinyl. It looks great up close...very high quality, it almost has a 3D quality, like real carbon fiber. It was more than twice the price of the normal 3M vinyl....plus the cost of the installation.

Nice looking car. I like the chin spoiler too.

We ordered a white w/ blue stripes 2013 Shelby. All was good until we went to the car show this weekend & the wife saw an 08 red w/ white stripes Shelby. We went to Ford & looked at the race red. Didn't like it cuz it was too orange in the sunlight.

Then I made the mistake of showing her the candy red. She didn't like it in the shade because it looks like dull maroon. As soon as I had them move the car out into the sunlight, she fell in love.

Now I've got to call the dealer in the morning & change our order from white to candy red!
