Rally stripes?

[dmustangracer]

To stripe or not to stripe! Has anyone ever seen a Saleen with rally stripes? I wonder how they look!

My observation has been that there are so many dealers and owners adding-on stripes that V6 cars start to look like GT500s or Shelby GTs.

I'm not against modding Saleens, but stripes are getting close to where I start thinking... naaah.

I agree with you 100%! Here in palmdale almost all the V6's have stripes. I googled Saleen withstripes and I see none. Just wondering if someone here had one.

Internet wise, there's a limited number 1996-2004 S281s with Shelby-style stripes posted in various forums.

My own observation is that the current S197 Mustang leads itself to this style stripe. The 1994-2004 Mustang, with all the edges, angles, bumps... the thinkness of the stripes and the color become overly important for them to come out looking well.

One option, if you haven't thought about it, is doing a take off the SA-15 hood stripes.

Or maybe a race-inspired stripe.
