Default What do you think? about stripes on my Mustang. I am thinking this for the hood..

I want to put some stripes on my Mustang. I am thinking this for the hood...
eBay Motors: 03-04 Mustang V6 Coupe Reverse Scoop Hood Scoop Insert (item 290188343151 end time Dec-07-07 05:16:12 PST)

And dual 8 inch flat-black rally stripes from the windshield back. Do yall think this would be a good combination?

AND I finally got my Mach 1 rims on. They look so good.

Not yet. Still deciding. I have the reverse-style hood. so I think the dual stripes down the whole car might look weird (?)... I will post some pics when I get it done (within 3 weeks...)
Thanks.

AND one more question now that I've been thinking... Flat Black or Gloss Black?

If it's red, I would say gloss. If it was a lighter color, the flat would look good....

I think it'd look good. On your car, with that shade, I vote gloss.

That is sharp. I still can't decide if I want the stripes down the whole car or not. I did, however, find some 40th Anniv. rocker strips that I have to get.

Sorry to bring back a dead thread, but I thought you guys would like to see my progress. My hood and roller stripes are put on hold until Friday or so. Here are some pictures of the new rocker stripe and Mach 1 rims...

Thanks. Ian, I would love to do stripes down the whole car but with the hood I have (reverse), I don't like the way the tapered look on it. If I don't like it, I can always change it. Just trying to be different.
