Tom: I read you loud and clear on keeping her "pure Ford," and I do adhere to that philosophy the vast majority of the time. But I sure do like the previous 500 side stripes and wish Ford had done something similar this time around.

So, I'm "considering" at this point and time but since I didn't insult Alan with the first graphic, after a fair amount of time looking at the car and doodling, this is the version I like the best.

And Alan, should you ever need or desire to have those door stripes re-done, I'll be happy to send your guy the OEM graphic in whatever file flavor he likes...(hopefully.) I'm gonna gin one of these up for RR Sarah and see what that looks like in case I get the urge to take her to my favorite paint guy. :-) Then again, to maintain the above philosophy, I think I could tolerate good quality vinyl stripes that could come off should I ever want to remove them. Hmmm...I could make those if I could match the shadow black in vinyl.

It's always somethin' I swear. :-)

Its a shelby gt500 lol the idea was to keep the side stripes but let them know what u got

Just an old saying "If someone has to ask (in your case read), they most likely will not understand anyway.

Move the letters/numbers up into the fender and maybe.

The above just doesn't look right

Tom: I've tried it on the front fender before and didn't like it but, I am going to look at it again. Meanwhile, here's the RR version of the above. It's a quickie so y'all please cut me some slack. :-)

I tweaked the original and here's the second copy...

Beautiful Car! It would be the color I would have ordered as well as I have a Competition Orange GT. I love the black top but feel the stripes clash with it, one or the other for me. Enjoy!

Thanks, Shane. Personally, I'm not a fan of the black roof but, "different strokes."

Tom: Here's the OEM way but there just doesn't seem to be enough real estate on that front fender to allow the text to be the proper size...too narrow. This is the best I could do for a quickie.

Digging the metallic flake in the stripes, looks good and will definitely be unique!

I still like it here better, but maybe more because to me it just looks right here s/p heritage. If I did not have my whole car wrapped in PPF, I may have changed the side stripes to this.

Remember this picture (best I could find). This is Ford’s version for the 2020 GT500 side stripe.

Yes, something more like this. Put the whole GT500 in the front fender and have a leading solid portion just aft of the tire. Use the same stripe design.

OMG, I know designers all over the world whose heads are spinning right now ...

Hahaha, I re-read this and I'm not sure if it quite conveyed what I was trying to be smart-assy about, i.e., Typeface != Font, but either way :crazy: :giggle:
