Both look nice above. Are there any of the "typical" hood stripes around or does the hood shape make it unwise?

Just for your information: On my painted stripes, the stripes were taped off first and then air brushed. Next the tape was moved to where the pin stripes were going and then the stripes were clear coated. The tape was removed and the pin stripping was placed over the edge of the clear coat.

I like them a lot, get many positive comments from peeps. They make the car much more distinctive imo. They were installed by the dealer as part of the GCA Ultimate Appearance package.
