Default Racing Stripes on a Vert

I have a 99 yellow convertible, and I was wanting to slap some nice black racing stripes on it. I mentioned it to my g/f and she thought it wouldn't look good on a vert, so I'm still debating the issue. What do you guys think?

Also I saw people saying they paid over $150 for stripes from baltimorestreetmods.com, and I was seeing the for no more than $50 for non-special colors. Maybe I missed something? http://baltimorestreetmods.com/stripe.htm#12inch

But If thats right I was thinking about going all out 12 inches for stripes.

Let me know what you guys think. Thanks. Btw the car in my avatar and sig is mine incase you wanted an exact color.

I'm curious about this as well.
2003 black vert here.

I saw a picture someplace where the stripe extended to the metal above the windshield, skipped the top of course, and then went over the trunk and down over the bumper.
Looked pretty good.

If i did it, I would probably go all the way back. I think it would look pretty sick with the top down.

And I would probably hit that section right above the window before the top like you said

Can anyone inform me on whether these are the right stripes? http://baltimorestreetmods.com/stripe.htm#12inch

I still don't see how people are getting over $150 for stripes.

IMO, if you do them, definitely do them all the way back. I'll bet they would look good.
