heefner Posted August 31, 2003 Report Share Posted August 31, 2003 The hood stripes would not be hatefull but I don't know how that splash across the fender will fall with puffy fenders. Might want to try printing out a pic of your car and then ink in the stripes to get a rough idea. That or send an email to Andrew (UL) hes good with that stuff. Good luck. -Kris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeMeyerhoff Posted August 31, 2003 Report Share Posted August 31, 2003 I agree... the fender stripes might not look to good on a widebody. Starting a center strip right at the hood scoop and extending it over the cabin is a sweet look!! MikeMeyerhoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shift1313 Posted August 31, 2003 Report Share Posted August 31, 2003 shaker hood scoop:) i like it, the stripes along the fender wont look bad, they are pretty fat in person. what about this http://www.vintage-mustang.com/mow13/pictures/boss302closeup.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VenomV8Quest Posted August 31, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2003 i dont think the 69 boss stripes will look good.and i definately dont want to blacken out my hood. ive thought about replacing the l88 corvette scoop for a shaker style,buy i like the way this one looks.

VenomV8Quest Posted September 1, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2003 well,i figured maybe around the first of the year,bui think i may offer my other 87 up for sale.she is all there,just needs some one to fix the engine and she should run fine.if i can sell it and make enough,i can have it painted and ready to go within a month.

kev Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 Racing stripes just don't look right to me on a conquest. I'd sure love to own that BOSS though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VenomV8Quest Posted September 3, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 im not gonna do full stripes.just the scoop and over the front fenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burton Posted December 27, 2003 Report Share Posted December 27, 2003 Land Rocket- That looks killer with the stripes and wheels. Of course I love the palermo grey too. I will be painting my quest in the spring and want to do something special with ghost stripes or ghost flames or something. I am painting it black with House Of Kolors cobalt blue pearlcoat. I thought I might do some stripes or flames that I leave black to give it a subtle look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
