Stripes and Decals

I think decals, especially the new ones, look fine for a while. Especially if they're well cared for. I went with paint and clearcoat (check my gallery for pics) because I didn't want the fading or the wax line that typically gathers in the corners of the decals. Having said that, the newer decals are thinner and less prone to buildup. They also have better UV protection. The debate over paint vs. decals has been argued elsewhere in this forum. I knew what I wanted and made it permanent with paint, but others have made a good point in that with a decal you can experiment or get used to a certain look without a lot of hassle, then add paint if you want later.

Personally, I don't care for the gt badging on the stripe. It looks like they're trying to make the car into something it's not. I have to call my bodyshop back and make the appointment to add similar, plain stripes in silver. Then there's a local place that can custom make the lettering for the word "mustang" using the original 1960's font which I'll apply in a similar location to the one you've linked to.
So having said all that, go for it. That's what makes it fun. If you don't like it, so something different!:winks
