Did my own stripes
Ordered stripes from Baltimore Street Mods and installed them myself. Wasn't too hard. Took me about a day and a half taking my time. Got the Idea to do them myself after seeing SixtySix's (Tony). Here are some pics.

Daryl's Stripes
Good job on the striping.
As for what I would recommend on sonic blue? I personaly like white on it better, it really is a tough choice because those silver stripes look real good too.

Kirby... those look pretty nice!! (But the pics are kinda small... bigger ones would be good).
Also, the more I see Sonic Blue's striped and the more I think about, the less I want to do it to mine. Can't really explain why I'm feeling that way, except I'm getting very attached to the subtle, stealthy look I have now. I guess I subscribe to the "Less is More" theory more than others might.
But, that is the beauty of this hobby of ours... we only have to please ourselves!!!

I agree with you on that one Don.... the only other way I'd go with yours is a matte black or semi-glass black hood or stripes like on the Mach 1 in '69 or '70... I think white, or contrasting strips would ruin the look you already have.
... pretty slick, slick.
