@BigWormGraphix Have you ever noticed an issue with paint protection film causing problems with your vinyl or OEM Ford GT350 vinyl? I would hope it helps protect the vinyl from damage and UV issues.

@BigWormGraphix That would be much appreciated. I'll PM you now.

@BigWormGraphix How close do you get to the OEM 2017-2018 Lightening Blue stripes?

@BigWormGraphix Are the OEM stripes made by Kay Automotive cast or calendered vinyl?

@BigWormGraphix Your method of making stripes is cast vinyl. OEM is printed, but does printed mean "calendered vinyl"?

I just checked in with my friend and he looked at his paperwork and they said Ford deducted for miles on the car. Did you use the lemon lawyer?

@BigWormGraphix Got it. Thank you for sharing the process. Just to conform, Kay Automotive uses a printer and you use cast vinyl? I have owned your stripes before and they are indeed quality.

Call Kay Automotive and ask them these questions. They'll be happy to help you understand their process.

That is what Big Worm Graphix told me. He said he uses a $30,000 printer and Kay Automotive uses a $100,000+ printer. Different quality is achieved with the more expensive printer.

It's a true match to the paint stated by Ford. I spoke to Kay Automotive which manufactures the stripes for Ford. Big Worm Graphix is the one who educated me on this topic and told me about Kay Automotive. It's a completely different quality of printing the stripes.

How much did that cost?

See attached PDFs. Most of the GT350 stripes are straightforward and did not change between the years. However, the blue stripes changed. As some of you may know, Ford used different color stripes for the 2015-2016 GT350 (Sonic Blue) and the 2017-2018 (Lightning Blue). 2019 will have Kona Blue...

@fordsvtparts I could not find a 2015 GT350R white with blue stripes. However, here VINs for the 2016, 2017, and 2018 GT350R white with blue stripes. Whatever means you have to address this issue would be much appreciated; VBOM (vehicle build of materials) as you mentioned might be our best...

@fordsvtparts Sounds good. I'll PM you my email and the VIN for a 2016 GT350R and a VIN for a 2018 GT350R to obtain the part numbers for VBOM (vehicle build of materials). Appreciate you finding a solution for this! Once I have this info, I'll create a new thread with a proper title so future...

Since California laws mandate the manufacturer pay for your lawyer, make sure you use the lawyer as Ford may be putting you through a process that will 1.) Take too much time or 2.) Short you on your true options to rectify this issue.

@fordsvtparts Good idea in regards to finding a VIN online. Here is a VIN from a 2016 GT350R which has different color blue stripes than 2017-2018: 1FATP8JZ4G5520113 - https://www.ebay.com/itm/2016-Mustang-Shelby-GT350R/113342712612?hash=item1a63c08b24:g:NZIAAOSwIDJb2fiM:rk:1:pf:0&vxp=mtr When...

Personally, I would not take partial payment and keep the car bc it appears the dealership can’t even fix the car nor properly communicate. If you still want a GT350 then look into the option of Ford giving you a 2019. If you don’t want a GT350, take the 100% refund. Bonus, if you paid MSRP or...

@fordsvtparts I appreciate the detailed response. This is a prime example why AutoNation Ford White Bear Lake is the place to go for great customer service. I have few questions, please: 1.) I know you stated if we provide a vin you can help source the correct parts. However, what if we bought...
