ok i did it in paint

2 or one stripes i am leaning towards 2

the silver will be more like "ghost stripes" as it will be there but slightly if you get me...

Personally I wouldn't even go with stripes, but with stripes I like the two stripe look better than the single stripe. I also think with a ghost stripe, that could be pretty cool.

Yeah, I'm not really into the stripe look on these cars personally, but I would have to go with the two stripe look over the one.

whoah that first one looks really good actually, if the stripes started on the hood, leaving the air damb solid black, i would be all over it. that car looks amazing as it is though, so leaving it alone wouldn't hurt either

simple way to do those is this. Use a program that supports 'layers' in an image.
Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop work this way.
Set one layer as the image. Put a new transparant layer over the car. Select the upper layer and draw solid white strips on the car. When you are done just go to the layer window and bring the transparancy of the upper layer down from 100 to about 20 or 30%. The car's shadows show through and it looks like what I posted.

my car had some vinyl flames on the doors and fenders back in the day. now the paint looks brand new in places where the vinyl flames used to be, compared to the rest of the car, where the paint has oxidized and turned to a primer gray color

now my car has some super ghost flames
