We'll I just installed my side New Stripes. The look exceeded my expectations which are always high !! To me this rounded font matches the wonderful curves of the GT.
I want to Thank Mike At Autotrim Design for making this happen. I provide all the dimensional data and the Font Concept and he made it happen. I think they liked the end result they added it to their GT offering so if you would like this look yourself it is now available. I'll be doing the Red and white car as well the contrast should really pop on that color combo. I have no financial interest is this product but they did give me some design credit. Like the GT it looks much better in person !! Here's a link to the product.

Stripe

I can only say "Super".:cheers

You did a great job. I agree that it is much better than the stock treatment.

Ford should have a design job open for you on the next Supercar project.

You know these side stripes in black would look great on your car !! ...:thumbsup
 
Improvement over OEM, again, Brian.
 
Looks good Brian
 
I might be interested if they offered them in a few more colors.:eek


OMG, I counted 82 color options!! How you gonna pick from all that?:ack

Guess I'll just go with Auroraprint Cyan/Purple and call it good.:willy
 
Nice look Brian!
Btw, is the original side stripe painted on or a film?
 
The OEM side stripes are tape. The top stripes are painted.

You can remove them carefully while using a a hair dryer to heat up the area a bit.

Mr Cobrar1339 is correct the new side stripe is high quality vinyl also . The conversion is relatively easy and painless ..:thumbsup

Hopefully, the conversion is too. :biggrin
 
Nice... That really helps bring it up to date!

But in the first pic your side skirt looks misaligned under the "RD"...

or is it just the angle?

Thank Ford for the panel mis alignment. The angle of the photo exagerates the difference. Most GT suffer from that on the passenger side.
If you look at the other passenger side photo that's straight on it looks fine..

Yes, I do, as you know my bride is from the Hawkeye State as well. I have no room to talk, just read my other post of yesterday which wasn't quite English.
 
Lazycat, I mean no offense, but this reminds of the lettering on the older Porsche Carrera Gt's. Maybe it will look better on the RED car.
