Ok, here is the hood stripe, I also made the outer stripes wider by 1/16" on the front and the deck lid.

I like the design, but the stripe on the spoiler is crooked. That would drive me NUTS!

Its a cool idea! I have thought about doing something like that for the berger panel when I had my silver car! I would go wider for the stripe though, it seems to thin..

I know this has a SS hood but I think it would look good on a flat hood too!!

Nope, I have never seen that car before, but I do think the wider stripe looks better, most every thing I do is an original, not much for copying some one else.
