Hi guys,

I'm trying to decide on what rocker panel (side stripes) stripes to add to my 2014 mustang coupe (V6). Overall I'm going for the Shelby GT500 look.

Thus far I'm leaning towards getting these customizable ones off fleabay as they look closest to the stripes on the Shelby: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ford-Mustan...-14-/121246516707?hash=item1c3adb05e3&vxp=mtr

My only problem is I can't decide what to put in the custom text area. I feel like "GT500" would look bad since its not a GT500, and similarly "GT" would look bad as well since its not a GT.

Any ideas/suggestions on what text to use?

Here's my car now:



Thanks,

-Ed

How about 305 HP or Ford Racing. Go to Graphic Express website for some ideas. You could always just do a plain stripe. Car looks awesome as is!

I would go with either plain or "Mustang."

I vote for plain. Sometimes I see custom phrases and it just turns me off on the car. Depends on what is says but if it deviates too far from a stock sounding title, it comes across a little corny.

I love the ones that fade out towards the back of the car, Steeda makes a cool set.
Hard to find otherwise.

I vote for plain rocker stripes, that's what I have on mine. I did mine in the same size and configuration as the original 1965-66's because I always thought that was a classic look.
