TBone Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 hey guys, I've been watching this site for over a year but never tried to post anything. I hope this works. I have seen what appears to be a shelby stripe kit on the GT. Is this this a special option or is this an aftermarket application? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShelbyDude Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 Ford offers over the top racing stripes as an option on mustangs, but they are not the same as the Shelby stripes. So anything that is simular to the Shelby stripes are all aftermarket stripes being put on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen this on several cars but did not know if this was an option other that the racing stripes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrfarmdog Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 Thanks for the information. I've seen this on several cars but did not know if this was an option other that the racing stripes. I also think it is hit or miss regarding whether you will get a Ford accessory or some other vinyl stripe kit purchased elsewhere. I think dealers tend to add what they think will help sell the car regardless of whether it is offered by Ford or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GT500KR Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 They are painted on my GT, What do I can them? :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilkilla Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 What do I can them? que? if you see them extending below the line of the hood/rear decklid(a la gt500) then they are definately aftermarket(tip-to-tip) and should only be done by professional types(not usually at the dealer) GT500KR, how much did painted stripes end up running you?

GT500KR Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 GT500KR, how much did painted stripes end up running you? I ended up paying for a whole new paint job and other things I paid just under 3K I think just for the stripes it would have been a lot less.I also got a real good deal because I let them take their time.
