For some reason the white border just does not pop like the red border on the black or silver cars. I asked for a delete on the stripes and was told that was not an option. Mine is Velocity Blue and I don't believe that the stipes will add anything to the looks of the car (in a positive way). BTW, the Twister Orange examples that I've seen on this website all look great!
I agree, the black and silver do pop w/red border and red brake calipers. I wonder if they could be removed without damaging the paint?

I remember when my buddy ordered his copper color '80 Trans Am without the bird on the hood and I was like, What, are you nuts? After a while, I saw his point of view.

The car looks so much better with the side stripes and hood decals imo. Without it, it's sort of drowned in the one same colour. Regular cars get the fast stripes for those nice contrasts but these take it to a whole another level. Also ordered Velocity Blue and I'm so glad it looks this way cause I wasn't really sure whether to go with or w/o fast stripes on the regular GT, Mach 1 solved it for me.

I agree. I ordered my '78 WS6 sans chicken.

I'm getting the Velocity Blue (someday) and that has the white border, hopefully that will POP.

The decal looks similar to the hood of the 73 Mach 1. I don’t like the different color border on the 21 decal plus no decal delete. Do it like the 73’s.

I REALLY feel that for the price of the Mach1 they should have also done the hood to be more of a 70's look. Would have been easy for them to use the 2 reverse scoops to direct more air towards the airbox since it seals on the hood anyway.

I ordered the Twister Orange too, wanted something different that popped.
Same here!
It was a very hard decision though - the other colours look really great.

I'm definitely keeping the decals, and I think the more subtle white border works well with the orange as the paint itself is so vibrant.

One thing I'm not so keen on is the revised fender badges.
I don't think they look as good with TO as they did when they were just black.
It can see it works better with other colours, but I'll probably be removing mine.
(assuming it's an EcoBoost fender with no holes punched in it!)

Looks like a GT without the hood decals to me - a good looking GT though.

That’s my only complaint. On fighter jet gray the black emblems looked great. After seeing one in person last weekend it confirmed to me that I will have to take care of that after delivery. The silver just disappears into the gray paint. Looks fine on the other colors I have seen but I wish Ford had stuck to the original style

I think the decals are fine, just wish there were some options. I'd rather 1 and 2 color options. I think the post regarding a GT look alike is valid. Something is needed to differentiate the vehicle from the GT masses.

When Ford first released photos the emblem on the fenders were black. I liked them a lot better.
