Anyone know of a better way to get them besides through the parts dept.? I need it for a small project I have in mind, but the cost for just the roof portion is ~$500-600.

Someone mentioned pricing out the whole kit, it comes out to about $4500. There has to be a way to get OEM stripes, it has to be replaced somewhere down the line, especially if the car isn't a garage queen.

Find a local vinyl application shop, they can give you the same or better than OEM stripes for a fraction of the cost. They would have more options to choose from for colors, gloss and patterns.

The reputable vinyl shop near me also has 3M 1080, which Ford uses, and I know the stripe color is called Sonic Blue, which I don't see in the list of colors for it. I'm guessing it's specifically made for Ford, since they've also had a paint color called Sonic Blue. Plus it's got that pinstripe that complicated things further, and turns it into 2 different pieces laid together.

The pinstripe as a second piece is not a problem, no one can tell the difference and it is just as durable as a single piece. That is how my hood stripes are laid out, plus mine have the small separate components for the cobra graphic.
