I'm getting my new Mach E PPF'd next week and having stripes put on it at the same time. I think these are the stripes I want (on Carbonized Grey though) and I'm looking at the grille now. So many Mach E's get the grille look and I really like it, bit what's your thoughts on the matte black grille area in the photo? Would it look good on the grey?

Edit: Just to clarify the color in the photo is vapour blue and my is a dark grey.

are you talking the carbonized grey, I have that I think it would be fine. IF you want to go with a grille design, these people have a nice selection. https://www.struckndesign.com/store...9eLP04wqx9fg10z6lrzFldthpwWd8pitIrBtbqW9el0#/
Yeah, I've seen their selection and definitely in consideration if I go that way. I think the solid black would stand out as different. Not sure if too different or even subtle lol.

Also, in your opinion, do you think the black in the phot is matte or satin? Hard to tell.

I think it's satin, which would be easier to live with than true matte finish.

First of all, do what you want with the car. It’s your car and adding personal touches should reflect your tastes. I have had a striped car before. In my town that’s trouble (or it could have been the loud carburetors, 3” flares, 3-1/2” ground clearance, etc. ??). The cops seem to ignore the giant hood bird on my T/A. ??

The photos look like the vinyl work is semi-flat or satin. It doesn’t look to me like it’s flat. Of course, photos may be different than in-person viewing depending on lighting. ?‍♂?

Yeah, definitely the stripes were the issue for the cops ? Thanks for the input on the finish too. I agree that it's at minimum semi-flat, likely satin IMO. Asked my warp guy for this thoughts too.

STRIPES!

I like big and bold. I went with 10” and a 2” gap. I didn’t do a grill. Just stripes. Do the back too.

100% the Shelby look is the way to good IMO on white! Look amazing. Big stripes definitely help. I think the skinny ones that go thought the grille look a little off IMO.

You think the matte black would stand out enough against the dark grey?
I personally really like stripes that are just a hair different. It's subtle enough to not look racy but still gives it an edge.

Nice I tried my own…..I have a new respect for wrapping techniques. Yes i colors are bad but it’s hard to do anything but black on rapid red.
