Hey guys and gals, need everyones opinion.

Just got my Mustang convertable ( White, Black Roof and red leather interior)
and I am strongly thinking of adding some red racing stripes as per this link
http://www.3dcarbon.com/

I think this car looks cool. However my dilema is that I have never seen any pictures of a converatble with racing stripes, so I am not sure what it would look like. Anybody got any pics? What do you all think of the look?

I think red stripes would look good.

Those would look good. I love the width and spacing...
I think the blue stripes look great on white, too.

I agree about blue stripes on white, but I don't think it would look good with the red interior.

Where is everyone getting thier stripes from? I saw some on ebay cheap, but you get what you pay for. I have been fighting the whole stripe thing, but the black on grey is really beginning to grow on me!

Exact thing i have been debating...black car...white stripes maybe? except that i have red interior. I like the look of white stripes on a black car, but would the interior ruin it?

it sure does seem that way doesnt it?

Its a personal choice I got my stripes done in Feb/March, I love them but others do not. I think on the White the hood looked so plain that it needed something, plus I chose the vinyl because if I get tired of it they can be removed(not easily but its an option)

I think we might feel that everyone is getting the stripes due to all the posts found on here and pictures of people getting them. We are a more enthusiast crowd though. I think the norm is probably very few doing it. Just from what I see driving around here in Austin, I have seen quite a few 05's but only 2 of them have had stripes on them...

I would guesstimate somewhere around <5% of the 05's I have seen... That isnt too bad... I'm sure that number will raise, but if you like how it looks, it isnt that bad....
