Big or little stripes? Im going to get to the body work on my car tomorrow, and im going to paint it a metallic red. im also doing flat white hockey stripes on it. what i was wondering is what stripes i should put on the hood (ultra z) in flat white also, ill either do little ones like these
or some big ones over the whole car similar to this
which way should i go?
thanks

I would do the racing stripes over the whole car, but I would 86 the hockey stripe idea. I also wouldn't do flat white, every greasey black fingerprint is going to show up after working on the car and I don't know how hard its going to be to clean off of flat white. Gloss white will clean easy, but flat??? I don't know.
Im kinda partial to the racing stripes too.

so is that racing stripes with hockey stripes or without?
and also, gloss or flat white?
im wanting to keep the hockey stripes, and im also liking flat white, the only downside is the edge it will leave where i will put it on top of the clear coat for the red
btw the red is called dark cherry metallic, its gotta be the most beautiful color ive ever saw lol, i forgot what car it was off of, but it is the red dark cherry, not the purplish one that has been on newer cars

I have this same hood and i did think about fillin' it at one point -in- time, but, that groove is somewhat functional isn't it? I thought about it kind-o-like the bulges in the roof of a viper to aid downforce on the front of the car. Maybe i was just using that as an excuse to puss-out lol! If yu do it , please post pics bro. I would like to see how it comes out.
