Default White on white stripes?

Messing with some different (and hopefully original) ideas for my arctic white T/A. With a WS.6 style hood, how do you think white 30th anniversary stripes or white BlackBird stripes would look? I've seen several black T/As with "ghosted" black stripes I got to thinking what that would look like if it were reversed. Would they be visible enough?

If anyone has pics of something similar, I'd be VERY interested. Thanks, all!

It's super sublte, but I really dig it. Where did you order your stripes and what was the color code/name for them? Gorgeous car, bj350hp

Seeing things like this makes me wish F-Bodies got more creative. I think it looks downright classy.

Think I'd still be safe with doing a satin/semi-gloss CETA mod? Also with polished 96-00 WS.6 sportlines?

When it comes time for me and after I get a hood and money for paint, I'm gonna go with a light silver style stripe. I love the look of white with light silver stripes. The white on white looks good as well but for me, I want something that stands a little more than white on white.
