Yeah, I agree. Something looks wrong or missing but I can't really place it.

It's missing the lines that run across the hood below the windshield. I think it would look a lot better if it had them.


Edit: Plus the dual stripes are wrong and the side stripes should go back on the rear bumper.

There are actually two variations of the Boss stripes:

1969

1970


It doesn't look like either one. I think the '69 stripes would look pretty good on the '05.

The ugly f-150 rims don't help


Yes, it needs more stripes to it. The hood stripes need to be Wider, filling up the hood more. going to the Fenders..

heres the problem it has shelby stripes down the whole length of the car and then the side part of the boss stripes, not to mention the boss stripes are way to small, they should be fatter on the fender, and ITS NOT A BOSS (biggest problem)

Side stripes should extend to the rear quarter. Rear stripes should extend down all the way too.

The stripes down the center of the car arent right either.

Thats the first thing I thought of. The "hockey stick" side scoop is too defined for a stripe like that. there are to many things going on when you look att he side of the car. Doesnt do anything for me, takes away from the car

Wow, $5,000 over MSRP for a Boss decal. Now that's expensive plastic.

the car is not right. if you take a look what chip foose did to that guys mustang in overhaulin at the sema show, the stripes on that are just amazing. he called it the gambler. he is very talented... this car is all wrong. the stripes at the back need to go all the way down, and the side stripe needs to go over the hood, it just looks like its not done completely or right. this picture i have on the other hand looks totally right. see if you agree.

There is a very limited supply of this plastic, that is why it is $5k extra. Kinda like the IUP...

Put a big fat black functional hood scoop and a black wing and its there
Oh, I forgot, a different color car and chrome wheels. That should do it.

I agree considering they are not authorized by ford or the Shinoda Family we do have an apperance car but it would include spoilers wheels and all the other apperance goodies as we also have our performance line also

Was seriously considering adding Boss stripes....

And I am really glad that I got to see these pictures because now I know that there is no way I am going to do it now. I don't like the look. I will be going over the top with my stripes; if I ever get my car.

Did they build the engine into a Boss, or is it just a sticker?
