View Full Version : Front meatball
The car's at the paint shop. I've still haven't come up with a definite blue yet. I'll need to do that within the next week or so. I have the dimensions for the stripes but I need the size for the meatball on the nose. I'm going to use static cling for the doors but I think I'm going to have the one on the nose painted. Anyone have a size or size range that works with 7.5" stripes?

Mine has 6-1/2 stripes with a 20 inch meatball on front. Looks pretty good.
Also I vote you check into Regatta Blue from Ford. Its gorgeous !

Thanks, I was guessing smaller on the meatball but considering the width of the stripes it should be right. BTW those are two blues that I hadn't considered. You guys are not making this easy.

I did 7-7.5" tapered stripes with a 16" meatball. Shoulda went with a 18" but I kinda like it cause it flows well with the stripes.

I am not running stripes so I have a larger meatball. Doors are 26 so is the hood, HTH, Richard.
