Default Spoiler stripe over or under?

My buddy just bought this car. He wants double stripes but is wondering what to do about this spoiler. Do most people just go under it with the stripes or do some actually stripe the spoiler itself. Pictures would be helpful. While we're on the topic, would you go gray stripes or black?

Thanks

IMO I'd leave the stripes off. But I've seen them three ways, under, on and both. Both looks the best in my opinion. Black, not gray. Gray will looked "washed out" on a white back ground.

I bought my stripes from Baltimore Street Mods and they pre-cut them for your application........my stripes go totally around the spoiler and under it too.

Thanks for the replies and especially the pictures. Please keep the pictures coming. Bossdriver, how wide are your stripes and how much space between them?
