I got a black mustang gt vert. I wanna get hood stripes, but i cant decide what color. Also im thinking of going bold and getting a horse put on both sides galloping with ghost flames running off of it. Just trying to think of something original to make mine stand out from the crowd. Also whats your opinion on euro tails.

Well, Yellow goes pretty good with black. But mainly I was replying to the euro tails. I think they look good on the later mustangs as long as they have the carbon fiber accents to them. PLus the ghost flames sound pretty cool with or without the stallions.

my buddy has a nice lx with euro tails. he's not tooo fond of them, and i think they're more for rice burners, but thats just me. personally i think the lx tail lights r the sh*t!! i think that a gray or silver would look very nice on a black car as far as stripes go. i saw this chick that had a 67' stang and she had the pony w/ghost flames and it looked bad ass, but if you put stripes and a pony on both sides, that might be too much

just for a third opinion i would say that yellow or silver would be the way to go and that the euros would depend on the year and type. if you have a 94-98 i recommend the euros without the bezel. but the crome bezel would look tight with silver graphics

euros only look good if you have a bright car(chromes) i also have a ford ranger stock on the outside except carbon fider euro they look real nice manly because my truck is red with things like a black tonnoe cover. so in short buy tail lights that match your car ones that dont fit the color schem just look out of place and thats why they look like rice burners because thats all most of them have anyways.

Euro tails=gay



Stripes= aight if you can back 'em up



Horse on the side= no offense, but not very original. about 1/2 the stangs out here have that. Now, if you say, had a ghost oval on the hood with flames peeling off it that faded into the horses' mane on the doors, all done in silver, THAT would be nice.

what do you guys think about these? Instead of the bezel on the 94-95 tailights going up and down it goes across. Picture of Taillights

1 the lines on the 94 and 95 tails go across stock.. the pic u got is of the export tails... the only difference between those tails and the stock ones r the yellow blinker.... the tails with the verticle lines is the 96 and up...

Does anyone have any experience with these stipes on the mustang? Which is better...the kind that you peel off of wax paper then wet it with wather and dishwashing fluid...OR...the vinyl that works like a sticker having some type of adhesive on a side? which do you think is more durable and can last with weather and peels? any input would be appreciated....thanks....

Just don't get the sticker type because l think they'll chip. ln my opinion, painting the stripes would be the way to go.
