Guys, could you please tell me what brand or quality does Ford OEM Black body stripes option on the GT 2019 models are? Are they 3M ones? I may need replacement (supplied by dealer) on my Need For Green one, hence asking.

I asked BillShephard and they recommend using VSigns (https://www.vsignsuk.com) and for NFG full replacement (supply and fit) 3M ones is £640 (incl VAT)

wow it'd actually be cheaper for you to drive to my local place and use them by quite a large quantity.

I have been told that when trying to take off existing Factory installed body stripe, lacquer can come off? Is it true Guys?

it depends how the current ones are stuck on but there's always potential for damage especially if its a strong adhesive.

Heat it using a heat gun whilst peeling, should come off pretty easily

Every wrap has it if you look closely, i looked at thousands of colours before doing my car (Brands gainst it not for the orange peel effect bt more for the insurance cost of wrapping the entire car.
Stripes it's rare to see it in much of them as they're too small, but the second it goes on a large panel like a roof you can tell it (AD, 3m, hexis it's all the same for all of

My detailers had a go on one stretch on body stripes on bonnet with different compound and polisher disc. It seems to have fixed 90% of swirls with few here and there. This looks promising than replacing OEM stripes at the moment.

So had it on show at the ford fair yesterday. I made it my goal to find another Need for Green mustang throughout the day, which I failed! This colour is rare!

Anyway, did anyone else attend?

In our area, there is only one in need for green which is mine. Haven’t seen an another one yet.

By the way, I have settled all the paint issues with ford now. Got money both from Ford Credit and Dealer, which was enough for 2 stage paint correction@Unique Detail, toddington plus CarPro cquartz ceramic coating (all around).
Thanks everyone for their help, suggestions, and Kristian for all help from start of the issue to the resolution.
