been busy here..with work glad to have seen a few
posts ..i looked at ron groans car and i am determined
to say his air dam is a aftermarket one and the
stripes are a after thought by someone else since they
arent even faded the same as the decal side stripes and
are a different shade...being a body guy i know even
a dealer wouldnt paint a stripe that far off from
the usuall concept at the time of production unless
it was desired by the customer..his car is really
nice dont get me wrong i wish mine was done as far as
his :>) my thinking is that somne of the cars came
with a upper stripe deleted either to later sell these
models or at the customers request..i have seen oh say
20 percent of the mirages with no upper stripes and
have yet to determine the exact reason as my car is
one of them and i could find no evidence of say the
roof ever being painted but found blue overspray in
the cowl area..any other thoughts??
thanx!
