    Agreed. I don't have any Mav emblems anywhere on my car. You should hear how most of those conversations get started. It's all fun though. Of course the guys that like Mavericks and know what it is really drool. I'm even amazed at the Chevy guys that seem interested in it.

    I was listening to a dude teaching his wife/girlfriend all about the cars when they walked by during a show. She inquired about the "Grabber" wording in my stripe. He instantly told her "Oh, that's just the owners nickname...has nothing to do with the car". My mouth dropped, couldn't even say anything! :rofl2: Made the entire show worthwhile. :)

    How about a Brazilian GT stripe? I think it would look good with those taillights.

    Interesting idea, Rando. You're right, I think that would look perfect with these taillights, and may even help that black bumper look more like it belongs. Now to find one... :hmmm:

    I think your local sign/stripe shop should be able to duplicate that fairly easy. Just show them that pic.

    It wouldn't have to be an exact GT stripe I guess, just something similar. I'm sure you could get anybody that cuts vinyl to make one. :huh: Although, some shops may not be willing to cut one with FORD in the middle.
