Default Racing stripe
Has anybody noticed the stripe goes down the rear bumper ? Does that look strange or is it me. I was going to order it until I saw that..

I'd definitely cancel my order and buy a Mustang.

Not a fan of any of the stripes or decals. The car's design already has a lot going on, adding those just makes things look cluttered and busy IMO. Less is more.

Skipping the stripe and going with the carbon fiber roof...probably look much classier...

I like the stripes on the front, but they should have made them wider towards the back.

The problem I noticed with the stripe going down the rear is if the stripe and Corvette decal are a similar color they will blend together. Then you also have the stingray decal to worry about.

They peel off, so if you were going to order without that section, no reason to not.
