I have been thinking about painting it, but if the tape isn't to expensive I would rather do that. If anyone knows of a local place and how much and if I can get white to match my car I would appreciate it. '98 SE Sport Fog light mod and sidemarkers No significant power mod

Since you have white, it should be easy to find a match. -Chris Hightower- -Hightower Performance Products, LLC (Oo.�xx�.oO) o xxxxxxxxx o

Really don't want to have to paint, sand, paint, etc. until I get it smooth. I'll look into vinyl tape cost and decide then I guess. I really want to white out all of the black on the trunk also and only have the chrome piece back there. We'll see what happens. '98 SE Sport Fog light mod and sidemarkers No significant power mod

It's one of the reasons I got a silver frost Contour... to better match the tape. P.M.

I want to make the silver strip on the back black, carbon fiber in the middle, with the SVT logo instead of Ford...that would be GRRRRRRRReat!!! 1998 T-Red CSVT (1492 of 6535) Born on 5/30/97 KKM 4.6L TB with custom "Throttle Optimizer" Bassani Exhaust NP-Tuning Sniper Intake Pipe Fog Light Mod with 885's Clear Corners Stereo - Oh Yeah!
