Every time I look at the stripe, I kinda want to just start peeling. I'm toying with just getting a hairdryer and going at it with a rubber edge type thing and soapy water.

The GT500 Lime Green is neat, but I'm not sure I like it as much as Need for Green. I like that NFG is not metallic - it'd probably look more like the Cameo's Krypton which I'm not as big a fan of.

I am still getting over being a pretty bright thing in the sea of 'standard' vehicle colors out there lol Stopping at lights it's like.. "be cool man. be cool."

I was able to remove the decklid and spoiler stripes pretty easy after letting it bake in the sun for a few hours. A heatgun would work great as well. Main concern is residue left behind - look up vinyl decal removal from car paint since there is a technique to peel the vinyl in a way that lessens the amount of residue.

There is also a product called vinyl off that you apply directly to the film that removes the residue in one step.

Steeda Q850. Been waiting for this for a long time. Just got it late yesterday and had to leave home for a month. Can't wait to get home. Better pics to follow after the complete detail treatment.

Wow that's.... racecar. Man it looks great!

This is my NFG, I like it better without the stripes also.

Absolutely stunning! Color, stance, wheels.....spot on

I appreciate the comment. I have spent a lot of time thinking about how I wanted it to look and it turned out better than I had first envisioned. I can't believe more people don't look at the Shelby CS3 wheels since they were designed for the S550 and they closely replicate the PP2 wheels.

Indeed the CS3 are a great looking wheel. If you don't mind me asking.....what springs do you have? (I assume you don't have Magneride?)

Damn that looks good. I'll get mine back soon with no stripe and some film+ceramic soon. I'm quite excited to see it again.

Away from home now but Steeda just put up a youtube video with the car in it.

Your right, I don't have magneride. It wasn't a big issue to me since I planned from day one to modify the suspension along the way. Right now it has Steeda progessive springs and the entry level stop the hop kit. Next will be some Steeda shocks and struts.

That's mine. Depending on the light and the camera used, no pics shows the true color. Only with your own eyes you can make a good decision with NFG.
