Could you be a little more specific? Are you looking for the LaMans type stripe used on the Shelby? If so they are all over the net. You're not looking hard enough. Do you want dimensions for the stripes? Do you want the GT stripe on the side of the car near the bottom of the door? Or are you looking for something unique?
p.s. racing stripes only make you think you're going faster.

Any type stripe? dont say that. I just got a picture in my head of your car with a big 12 inch stripe going diagonally across your car from the drivers side front wheel across to your rear passenger side wheel.

Please be more specific as to what you want.

I always liked the wide Daytona stripes, ft to rear. Although not being a Shelby Id be reluctant to put them on.

But, ever seen a FIA 289 Cobra? <A.C Cobra that is. Its got one or two lines @3 inchs wide that starts around the front tire well and goes over the hood to the other wheel well. Looks cool.

Click here for one FIA example.

I like odd ball old stuff like that. The true Ford Nuts will recognize.
