I used 1" but that will depend on how wide of a stripe you go with. The reason I used 1" is because the stripes line up perfectly between the fogs and the lower grill section.

Just noticed you didn't stripe the lower section of the front bumper (chin area). Get that done....it looks like your car is missing something without it.
