Default Stripes on a Sea Grey Zetec

Hi everyone,

Mrs Fantastic Ford has decided to get stripes for the Zetec (Sea Grey duco) but can't decide what color. We've narrowed it down to either silver or black.

I know beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but any thoughts/comments are appreciated.

Cheers, Rob.

Sea Grey with white stripes is the way to go.

We've decided against white because its a bit full on against the sea grey. Black would be nice as its not too confronting, but wouldnt black stripes look filthy before the rest of the car did?

Hey guys weve decided to go silver, but were looking on ebay and cant decide where to buy the stripes from.

One place has them for $16.70AU and the stripes are 150mm wide. Is this the same width as the stripes on the ST/XR4?

no they are not

those stripes are more like the VIPER ones. thin.

if you look at my picture they are the ones.

best thing to do is contact your Ford dealer and just ask a general Question about the stripes. and ask how wide they are!
