I already purchased my stripes thru ebay last year and after looking at cars with stripes, I liked the 10" better. It's really up to your prefrence.

i haven't install them because the car is going to repainted. my brother had some installed on his previous mustang and liked them. the only problem he had was finding a cleaner for them. I may just have them painted on instead.

you thought about having a decal shop do it for you? only reason i say this is if you don't get all the bubbles out and one of them breaks open then your whole strip looks like crap. if you have a decal shop do it for you then they will fix it for free instead of you buying more stripes.

I would go with the 10" as well, of course I am a little biased.
