I've always liked the 12", but I think Taylor's car made me change my mind. i never thought about putting a 3" gap... It looks great!
Taylor, can you post some pics of the back?

To each his own, but........Double 10's with 1 inch gap looks great on our car.
Two twelves are a wee bit tooooo much (imo)

The only rear shot I have is before the stripes went all the way down the rear bumper so it looks a little unfinished.

I remember having this debate about my car. Ended up getting about 9.5" stripes. But there are definitely days where I wish I'd gone up to 12.

Here's mine..

10" with 1" gap between them.
1/4" space between the main stripes and the 1" pins.
I chose a small gap and a large pin to set a different look than most stripe jobs.
I REALLY like it.
As far as the 12"... they were just way to wide for me when I saw them in person.
They just seem a little too fat as a solid stripe to me. ESPECIALLY at the rear of the car.

The stripes go all the way down but the lighting on the pics did not show the full length of the stripes down the bumper.
