Default What Size Stripes?????

What size stripes do you guys think I need for my 05 GT with eleanor hood? I was trying to chose between 10 and 12 inch. To me the 10" looks best in the back and the 12" looks best in the front. But the 10" looks good up front with the center mounted fog lamps . What do you guys suggest? I am leaning toward the 10" because I think it matchs the hood the best.
Oh and Im going with Geranium Red!!

12" stripes 2" apart. That's what I went with and I think it turned out great. Here are some pics taken by my horrible camera:
