85 cobra

Hey everyone

Getting ready to paint my 85. Car is black now and I will probably stay with that as my base color. I have gunmetal/polished cobra R's and wondering about putting back the GT graphics... Something different... solid color (not my first choice)...??? Any suggestions or pics of similar would be great. Engine is finished and I'm anxious to get at it

THANKS

The stock look all the way!!!
When i had my 85 GT i left everything looking stock as far as the trim goes,except the belt line as i painted it gloss with the body,looked awesome cause it was black,but looking back,i wish i left the belt line as is.There is something about the '85/'86 GT look that is timeless in my opinion.

sorry for the confusion, the stock decal look only painted instead of vinyl. Getting at it now hopefully will only take a couple of weeks.
