Would like your opinion on adding "non-racing" stripes to rapid red mustang

[mustangrapidred21]

I have a 2021 rapid red ecoboost. I love the color but there's something about seeing them with the dual, gloss white stripes that makes it look even better (IMO). Did a lot of research online and determined that if I do it I'm going to go with Eagle Enterprise's kit for 18-22 GT's and ecoboosts.
What do you think about doing it and if I do, putting on the gloss white (as opposed to black)?
I know there are very opposite sides to this topic but I value your opinions so don't hesitate to say what you think. Here's a photo of what it would look like after adding the stripes.

Look nice. Beside, it’s your car, do whatever you want

I think stripes look terrible, but it's your car.

Do as you wish.

Really?
I think it really depends on the car and color

Just personal taste.

I like the look. Adding black pinstripes on the outside would make it pop even more.

Stripes on a mustang are iconic. If that's the look you like then the opinions of a bunch of randos on an internet forum should mean less than nothing to you.
I would never put stripes on mine.

If that somehow influences you then that's, well, kinda sad...

I agree!

To the OP, I'd prefer white stripes on that red. I'd put stripes on my GT, but it becomes a problem with the clear bra. Maybe some rocker stripes for me...

On mustangs, only Shelby's should have stripes, in my opinion. Its a classic and iconic look that those cars started back in the day.. Just my opinion, it is your car and you do what makes you happy.! =)

I'm one of those that likes the stripes when done well, like ORRadtech already mentioned they are iconic.
White or black it is all up to your taste, it's your car and your the one that should love it.

Do what you want, and don't let others decide for you. But the photo you posted is a GT350. Your car is a 21 EB. The fronts look totally different. And if I were you, I would go crazy with it. Get lime Green, or Yellow, or something totally ridiculous. Because you only live once.

I don’t like the stripes on any car. To me, less is more. The other thing about them is, if you get rock chips in them, they’re likely to be more of a PITA to fix than a base coat/clear coat paint job. If you do get stripes, I would suggest making them as subtle as possible, nothing that stands out more than the car itself.

Didn't stripes have a meaning back in the olden days of road racing when countries had specific paint colors to use?

Thanks for the feedback. Yea I know it's not a photo of an ecoboost but that's as close as I could find for posting.

Your car, your choice I don't understand why folks. Need others' approval to do anything.
I would never take a picture of a Mustang with a toyota sign behind it.

LMAO Live FREE or die ..
