Did you pull the spoiler or cut the stripes?

And thank you.

I cheated and cut them flush.... For now. I will get around to it.

Austin, from the moment I first saw your car I was thinking how much cleaner it would be w/o the stripes. In my eyes the car looks sharper and less "adolescent" with them gone.

Others may cringe but you get a huge thumbs up from me.

Thanks Tob.

I sent pictures to a lot of people last night, I should have included you now that I think about it.

So far it's almost completely unanimous around my friends. Only one wanted me to keep the stripes.

The pros and cons were heavy in both directions, I was basically looking at it like this

Pros of removing - Cleaner, sleeper-ish, less bad attention (in the event I happen to be speeding), it also does look a bit more aggressive, less common.

Cons of removing - Less good attention, the heritage look (which I adore), minor paint protection in those 2 spots, potential resale (I'm never selling this thing).

Overall I'm actually really glad I did it. I shouldn't have waited so long.

What's the point of owning this car if not to make everyone think you're a big man-child?! (not sure on the female equivalent - sorry ladies to leave you out of this one :lol.

The GT350 is like the grown up version of a straight piped civic when it comes to disturbing the peace.

I agree it looks great but I’m clinging to my adolescence as long as possible...

Sometimes I catch myself trying to behave in this thing. It doesn’t last long.

Today

Had the windows tinted with ceramic film. Looks really nice. Installed LED interior bulbs.

While at the tint shop found several customers having some sort of UV film (almost clear, no real visible tint) applied to inside of windshield. They say it really keeps the inside cool in the hot sun. I had never heard of this? May take my F250 in to have it done to see if it really helps. Worried about clarity.

Anyone with experience?

I checked my oil. 2000 miles now. Time to add the first quart ever.

Also got my State Farm bill - bastards dropped the car and now charging me $1,700/year

Sometimes it looks good, but a Shelby car needs stripes in my opinion. lol

I have the windshield of my company car tinted. Huge difference! You cannot tell from looking at it, anything is there.
