81 hood stripes

My wife is thinking about putting stripes on the hood of her 81 and I have not seen any others than the ones that mid-america has.

Any pics of aftermarket decal or custom stripes on 81's?

Maybe you could talk her out of it.

Purchase a tape kit replicating the "81-"82 two tone option.

one of the guys just did his own black hood strip on the bulge in the middle with the dupli-color paint system you can do yourself. Turned out quite nice as I recall.

We were looking for something for where the hood rises not on top. The car is bright white and we would like to accentuate the height of the hood with something other than the decal mid-america has.
