    They do look good i am quite fan of stripes,

    i would have liked to have the stripes that were in the original post down the side of the car then move them to the bonnet as he has done, but mirror the stripes in the same way they come up from the wing to the bonnet, and then continue them down the side of the bonnet as they did on the side of the car until they hit the front of the bonnent then make them a very small pin strip accross the front of the bonnet untill they meet up with the stripes from the other side of the car.
    but that would just be my personal preferance, and everybodies preference is a personal choice.

    great minds think alike..............i was thinking of crossing the bonnet,but at the point where they come up from the wings,but then thought it might look odd and 'lose' a bit of the 'shark' like front look....but your view/thinking sounds interesting...mmmmm

    Just had a closer look at your 2nd pic & think the grey should come to a point like the rest on the bonnet
