Full stripes, bumper to bumper. Someone did paint their roof to make it look like glass though. If that's what you're going for.

The second photoshop looks the best, but consider starting the strips at the hood, and stopping them at the top of the trunk, a bit more cleaner and classier in my opinion.

Now I am contemplating going for the Boss mustang look with just the scoop of the hoop, the roof, the back of the trunk and the side.

*sigh* decisions decisions

Stripes all the way down.
Those stripes on the first page done on photoshop are TOO far apart from each other in my opinion. WAY too far apart.

I disagree with this and so will most people.
This look tends to look like an incomplete stripe job to most people, myself including.
Tends to also look like someone was trying to do it "fast" and not finishing up.
I ESPECIALLY dislike the ones that leave a space on the lip of the hood before they start.

To me that look also looks kind of "high school-sh". Does not look professional or complete.
Almost looks like a set of stripes you could buy at Pep Boys and just slap on there real fast.
(Sorry if I am offending some, but I have to say my true opinion.)

I don't see how it looks "cleaner" the way you said either. What makes you think this?
How does striping all the way down look less "clean"?

Good call!
The stripe that does not go all the way looks unfinished in my and MANY more people's opinion.

And if you don't agree you are WRONG!
LOL just joking. We all have our opinions, but I did not understand the person's logic that I was replying to earlier.
