To stripe or not to stripe?

[RAREV8]

Well, I've finally got someone to finish bertha's paint job off after an arduous year of getting little done with a mate....She is Moody Blue metallic and I think that a pinstripe of some sort (not orange) will break up the side profile a little.

However, I am toying with the idea of two thick, almost cobra-esque stripes over the whole car also in silver. I hate the idea of "fake" or lookalike cars (note: only my opinion!) but heaps of other muscle cars had these big stripes down them.

I just thought that I'd see if anyone had any good advice or particularly strong opinions on the matter!
Any thoughts are welcome!
