Hey gang,
This is way way ahead of time needed, but curious if anyone knows where to find variations of the laser stripe kits. Most have the same 4 and I see several blue ones with what seems to be more of a silver to dark blue. Grabbed this picture online and I can only find what seems to be a blue to dark blue. 
Thanks!

I am looking at having the painted stripe removed and a laser stripe applied on mine. Would look the same as the car in your post. Bringing the car for his shop for a ballpark on some touchup after a little panel gap massaging. Met the guy at a local meet yesterday. 
  Not sure where the stripes are from and if there are more options. The formal 72 sport I was interested in years ago had an oem stripe in a box and it fell apart when he unrolled it. Light blue car with black vinyl roof. It also had the same laser stripe as in your post.

We had a member that ordered a set from Phoenix graphics and they were not correct.  However, Phoenix fixed it and sent him a corrected stripe.  I'd suggest getting some good picks of an OEM blue stripe and make sure that your new stripe matches.  It seems like Phoenix will make it right, so they might be worth contacting.

I'll give then a call. They have the same 4 on their site but guess it can't hurt to ask. Thanks!

Just a little additional info, I'm going to be buying a stripe kit (blue) and found that Mustang Market also manufactures the kit and is Ford licensed.  They show the blue being the proper silver fade to blue on their site.  Phoenix Graphics do not show being Ford licensed in their ads.  Not sure if anyone on here has gotten stripes form Mustang Market but if so would appreciate any opinions.  thanks - dave

I couldn't see a difference in the images on my end between the 2 sites. Maybe it was Covid related, but mustang market was awful when I had to deal with them and had to file 2 claims through PayPal when they wouldn't answer their phone or reply to emails on a few items I ordered late last year. I did however have a good conversation with Phoenix and they said if anything was off, they would color correct and send another. Super nice when I called about this.

I am searching for someone who produces the Black Stripe on the 1972 Gran Torino in the attached photo. It's not the standard reflective/fading Gran Torino stripes. Any Ideas?
