I like the stripes. I've been thinking about doing the same to my Mercury Silver XR. I just can' decide whether to get black or another shade of grey.

I think the idea of individualising our cars this way is great. But I don't like making an XR6 look like a GT or F6. That's making it out to be something it's not.

A bit like Expensive Daewoo owners who are so ashamed of their brand they change the badges to Chev!! I'm seeing more and more of this.

Im yet to see any of the factory bonnet stripes on VEs yet...

I've seen them on a few VE SS's and I know a guy that has them on his VE SS as well..

Thanks for the comments fella's.

I like the white paint but just wanted to break it up a bit ... hence the blue highlight. I agree with Silverchris but as long as you don't get the GT logo I think the plain stripes are fine on the Turbo models.

Cheers,

Scott

Looks quite good. Any reason why you changed the front?

I've just had the GT triple stripes put on ... blue against the winter white looks pretty good I reckon.

Cheers,

Scott

Dont like it..

Also, why do you have a big F O R D sticker on your rear windscreen?

I think the Ford badge in the middle of the boot, the "Falcon" badge on the left side of the boot and the "XR6" and "Turbo" badge tell people its a ford..

Also.. FYI: Theres a Ford logo on the front of you car aswell..
