Angry 2005 Mustang V6 Stripping Stripes

My 05 v6 is blue with white racing stripes. However, the stripes are starting to flake off sort of around the trunk area. What can I do about this? It's really starting to bug me...

Unfortunately over time vinyl will start to break down, especially if not treated. Best thing to do is remove it and if you want stripes in the future, have them painted on. If you have to go the vinyl route again, ask to have them clear coated.
