Arrow ANYONE have photos of Racing Stripes for a 2007 Mustang Grabber Orange

Hi Guys I have a new 07 Grabber Orange mustang and I'm thinking of
getting the stripes put on.

#1 Black or Dark Gray.

#2 I'm looking at 10" and 10" with outside pinstripe and 12"

What do you think looks best and cleanest? I would love to hear
what you guys think and Any photos you have would be GREAT!

Thanks.

I would vote for dark grey to match the wheels. Nice ride!

You could have your wheels color scanned to match if your having the stripes painted on.Most body shops have this technology in the way of a scanner. We color matched the engine cover color and matched up with my wheels very close.(I did re-install the stock wing in the second pic).

Absolutely has to be grey (the best match to your wheels you can find). It would compliment the car so well with the wheels. May I ask what size those wheels are and what lowering kits (front and back) you have?

Ok Guys Gray it is! Not time to pick some stripes here are a few I have see what do you think would look the best on the car?

Thanks for all your guys input it means alot hearing what the other mustang people think


I the stripes I know there is
1.10"

2.12"

3.Big with 2 pin stripes on each side

4.10" with 1 pin stripe on the outside of each

5.then I saw the one that I posted that looks red with silver stripes that looks like it is a 10" with pin stripes on the inside and outside of each?

What one of these do you guys like best and would give it the best
look?

P.S. if there are any other combo's you guys think I should look at as well please post :-) Thanks.

On Grabber, I think the one big stripe with pin stripes would be very sharp!

Your car looks awesome. Could have sworn it was lowered.

Anywho, I would go with the two stripes on your car. Having the one big one might be overkill on Grabber. I personally like the one that was posted after yours that seemed to have a black outline to the stripes (very cool, especially when your wheels are framed with black tires...). I would go with the stand 10 inch stripes, but the pinstriping would be your call. I am indifferent on that particular look. No preference. I really do like that black outline though....very unique.

Ya the car looks lowered :-) I went with big tires to give it a good ride. I think it rides just as well as it did with the stock wheels.

I went with 255/40/20 in ft. and 295/40/20 in the rear. :-)

Yes right now I think I may go with the 10" with pinstripes on the out side.

Or go with the 10" with pinstripes on both sides of the 10" main stripe
like on the Red and silver car I posted????

What do you think? I think the pinstripe just keeps it from looknig like all the other cars that get the stripes at the dealers.?

I like the silver on the 08 Shelby GT's. You can go to this website to get some ideas.
