So i guesse im looking for somebody with some painting experince or have done this to there sho before. Realy dont feal like payn to much for it thanx

I went to the local hobby store and bought a silver paint pen for about 3 bucks. As long as you prep the area like you would with any painting it looks pretty good. I've had it on there for 2 years and only had to touch it up once.

Paint it yourself... I would get the stickers personally, if you don't like them you can just take them off or change them out for a different color.

I've seen both and IMO, the decals look best. And as long as you don't go crazy with a pressure washer they should last a long time.

BTW, I bought mine from Bob White.

Sounds like its a good idea to get a sticker or just do it my self. Where do you get these stickers? From ford? thats what i heard. Also anybody had any luck tryning to find some Decent after market headlights for a good price? Mine are starting to get that yellow tint to them.Ford wants 275 a one! Damn them.

Click the link in my other post where it says Bob White and you'll find the decals you need...alot of different colors too.

As for the headlights....I've seen new ones on eBay for $149 a piece. That's where I'd get em. thumb

This is great! but i still have a question Does the sticker match with the clear coat of my car? I see you have a metalic green, i also have the same color. What color did you use white on the rear >? I see you did not use it on your sides thu.Also those Black out rears you got are **** to find.

I bought the silver ones and they look awesome. Actually, I did do all three "SHO" areas, it's just a crappy pic so it's hard to tell.

Here's a better picture of the side:

If I ever have redo mine, I'll go with the silver reflective ones...they look sweet at night.

As for the taillight covers, you can get them anywhere that deals with Lund products.

Sounds good, ya i could not see them in that picture. So the silver ones dont look cheap or chrapy? im just trying not to make it look cheap by putting some refletive stick on my car just maken sure it wontLook like i bought some stick at kmart with some snap on rims to go with it. They look great on yours tho. i havent done to much to it yet bought it this may for 3,800 with 90,000. Also theys are easy to put there just stickers, not glue or nothing like that you have to put on yourself?

 

[SHO2NV]

Sounds like you got a good deal on your SHO.

They are individual little strips that you stick in the little indentations. Installation is kind of a PITA, you just need a steady hand and plenty of patience and they'll look great.

 

[SHONUFF95MTX]

Sound like all go with the reflective silver since you have seen them and my car is the same color all give you the upper hand on it. Yes, and the guy selling it to me was a car dealship called "New life auto sales" Some Christian Based car dealership. He had no idea what a sho was realy he herd of them ,This one was sitting on his lot for 2 months he said nobody wanted it becuase it was a 5spd! ha i said im your man. I did some looking on the internet and found out That is 1 of 2,060 made. I also looked at what the prices on ebay were going for around 4,500-5000 for my car. SO i picked it up! And all i had to do was change the gaskets were the plugs were,oil all in them! ahh, This happens alot in sho my friend owned a 91 plus and he had the same problem. Thanks for the tip >

 

[SHO2NV]

for mine i just masked the area to be painted, prepped it and put about 4 nice even layers of paint on it. Looks much better than the stickers in my opinion. and it only took about 2 hours tops
