Those stripes come with the SVT performance package.

I agree though, don't like the narrow stripes.

Very sharp, can't wait to see it in Kona like the others said!

I wonder if the pony on the grille can be easily removed? And what's underneath?

I think it would look cleaner and meaner without the pony on the grill, and with the HID's.

Yeah - HID's will really complete the look! Now if I can figure out how the hell I'm gonna switch out the lower portion to match the top....hmmmm

I'm contemplating the Roush fascia to go with an MCA. Saw the gray car in the commercial and just wondered how good it would look with the MCA grill.

I went ahead and ordered the body-color mirror covers yesterday, because that is the one thing I don't like about the MCA package. If you are at all interested I got them here - http://www.ninosport.com/DG-Custom-A...-p/mc2010x.htm - use TMS.com as a discount code for 5% off too!
Would you still have got these if you were going with black?

Definitely - the full black plastic mirrors kinda look cheap. I think the body color really helps to dress em' up a bit!

The difference is subtle - but I like the shine of the body color that matches the car

BTW - can't believe that dealer left BIRD SH*T sitting on that black paint & then took a picture to try and sell it online like that?!?! WTF

[QUOTE=wannabe;5863653]I like that little bit of rake. I've also decided that I like pretty much ALL the front treatments except the big fogs high on the GT. I just can't get used to 'em even tho they've been that way since forever. QUOTE]

I have to say the exact opposite; the single most distinctive, important, historical, significant, identifiable, sexy and mean feature of the recent Mustangs is the fogs in the GT grill. Any and every other itineration is lacking without them (except the Bullitt.) These add-on billet grills SCREAM cheap aftermarket.

I know they're distinctive... that's why I mentioned you can tell what's coming a mile away in another thread. I just don't like 'em. Never have.

According to the SVT staff, The narrow stripe was a tribute to the narrow stripe used on the GT40 when racing during 1966. The narrow stripe is exclusive to the Shelbys optioned with the SVT performance package only. Regular GT500's get the standard width stripe found on the 2010 Shelbys. Hope that helps.
