ColdwaterHotrod Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Tough spot. I personally would rather sleep with my wife, rather than my car. But, I've been known to do both. HSURB I know what mean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of GT Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Coldy, for what it's worth, and if it helps any, your interior is charcoal so at least the stripes will match the interior, AND if you go with the blue calipers, you will still have some blue on the car which would still look good if you decide to change the stripes to blue later. To my taste, I would say that the three calpier colors for a white car would be in this order: 1. Red. 2. Blue. 3. Black. And keep this in mind too, don't forget the Carbon Fiber trim. Truthfully, I don't know how good the CF pieces would look with the blue stripes and vice versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie Snake Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Congratulations John, Your car looks magnificent. I didnt realise how wonderful white would look with the Super snake package.

Revan Racing Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Bud I spoke to John yesterday and he was just outside of Dallas. He hopes to be home sometime today, Friday. I know he's made some stops along the way. Those should be interesting photos at the different stops. Dactyl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry I miss you at the BJ Auction here in Palm Beach. I was to busy with the boat show to make the BJ Show. I just got in with the car, it runs great and has already been to its first Race track and car show. Up dates when I can.

Pjo Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 :bowdown: I LOVE THAT HOOD...it's the coolest hood ever. Don't know why but it stands out more than MM's Red (it's ok we like Mikey's Red SS too) But the white is just primo and of course I love the flat black cuz my 06 has fb stripes as well. Someone's going to need some spare Fire when they hit the road come summertime..... p.s. Usually I don't get green but I"m praying for lottery tickets right this minute....

andyukok442 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 here's my 2005 GT, no blower, no sixth gear. runs e85, lowered & stiffened suspension, mild performance mods & painted stripes I know it's no Shelby but my budget was kinda tight, so for 32K (my car and mods) I have a great looking and well performing car which grips the asphalt like glue.

andyukok442 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 Nice look! But now I can see some other red stripe owners getting mad because they can't have this option if they SS their car Well after finding out that the Super Snake stripe kit costs an estimated $1'400 I decided to have them painted on for $1'800 with a nice coat of clear coat back on top of all that.

94gt Posted May 7, 2008 Report Share Posted May 7, 2008 I am surprised I haven't seen more regular Gt500's with the new Super Snake hood. I would be curious how to stripe the hood itself. I believe the stripes from ford for the GT500 have the vent cut outs so they couldn't be used. Obviously the silver stripes for the KR would work unless you want a different stripe color.
