So it seems like more and more people are ordering their cars with Stripe delete, as mine was, or removing them once they get their car. However, I did not factory order my car, someone else did and then backed out, so no factory stripes for me. To me, Shelby Stripes are part of the Shelby tradition. So let me know what you think. They are a dark blue with lots of pearl, not metal flake, but pearl, like a factory paint color. I also lowered it an inch +/- while there with the Steeda springs. I have the SVTP Package and it does not seem to change the ride any, perhaps the smallest bit tighter on sport mode.
Bucking the trend

Very nice! The car sits at a perfect height now. The stripes look great too.
Beautiful!
everybody has a different opinion but i think this looks awesome!
Not a traditional guy, so the stripes aren't for me. I know I'm giving up 20hp with the stripe delete, but I think I have enough HP left to make due.

Now you really got yourself a real Shelby, very nice, me like it very much. You also just got back 20hp by adding those beautiful stripes.
Car looks great. I've never been a fan of stripes on any car. I've always felt they've been over done, however they definitely go hand in hand with the Shelby and is the one car where stripes definitely belong.
Again, nice car!
Again, nice car!
I like it!! Beautiful!! I wasn't going to mess with the suspension, but I love the way yours sits...
Nice looking car. I like the stripes on the Shelby, IMO, that part of what makes a Shelby. I ordered the silver with black stripes and glass roof. It has an ETA of 7/28 but we shall see.
I agree with you about stripes on a Shelby. To me they just belong and the ones you added look great! To each their own and everybody should of course have their car suit their own tastes, but to me if it doesn't have stripes it's a high performance Mustang - with stripes it's a Shelby. Just picturing it in my head without them, there's no comparison. Well done. :beer: :rockon:

Well done! Do you have a picture of the ride height when stock? Then I can visually compare...
Please post a link to the springs you used. What else was used to lower the car besides the springs? Did you get an alignment? Thanks. Car looks sweet.

Looks sweeeet!!!!
Looks good....+1 on the setup for lowering, however I see you used steeda springs
My favorite, perfect.
Looks good, love the drop.
I'm not fan of the stripe delete on the GT500's, it is just too plain looking for my tastes. It just adds that something extra to the retro body style GT500's. I'm also a fan of the stripes that get added to the interior when you get anything but black stripes on the car.

I love it......... and let those Oakland Raider fans keep their Silver and Black GT500's that's been available every years since 07
