silverchris Member 129 Member For: 21y 4m 1d Location: Bulleen, Vic Posted 05/03/07 07:38 AM Share Posted 05/03/07 07:38 AM 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.

Posted 06/03/07 12:36 PM Author Share Posted 06/03/07 12:36 PM 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 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/32940-gt-stripes/page/2/#findComment-504823 Share on other sites More sharing options...

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..
