Homemade Hood Stripes

Couldn't find what I wanted or color I wanted, so I made my own. I might re-desige them but for now I'm happy with them. Decal/striping material came from a company called Oracal.

I dig'em! Something different. Does the color match the pinstripes?

Stripes

Very close, but not exact. I may pull the pin stripes. Just wanted a "fader" type hood decal in a color that would accent the parchment color of the interior. Here's a few more. And yes, the spacing between the stripe get smaller as it goes back to the scoop while the stripe gets bigger. Pain in the rear to measure out.

I would personally pull the pin stripes. Doesn't go with these cars.

I get what you did, and kudos for getting it done...not my taste, but I like the originality!
