1986 GT hood decal placement
« on: October 08, 2024, 01:35:22 PM »
Should the 1985-86 Mustang GT hood decal be flush with the rear of the hood?

Thanks,
John

If you need exact details, my 86 is still original. Rough but original.

KevinK,
Does the decal wrap around the back lip of the hood or is it flush with the edge?
Could you send a few pictures?
Thanks,
John

I will take a look this weekend when I resume the heater core replacement.

KevinK,
Thanks. I would also like a picture of where the front horizontal stripes end and how close the sides of the decal are to the breaks in the hood.
THanks again.
This is my first venture into Fox bodies.

Ok, so at.the hood edge by the windshield, the stripe vinyl wraps around to the bottom fully covering the hood skin. Send me an email to svo413@aol.com and I will send photos. I have photos of the front edge too.
