Thanks to those with constructive replies.
Yeah the "Hebrew Deer Antlers" are mostly because with my limited photo program, I couldn't do the subtle ghost flame within the stripe that I imagined.

The flames weren't written in stone for me anyway...thanks.

I had intended for the stripes to wrap clear down the bumpers originally but it seemed to interfere with the front styling. I'll have to mock that up and take a look. I also had a version where they narrowed down the front.

And yes, I guess I always have liked the fat Cobra stripes all my life

Slik's stripe is the best I've seen on almost all the pictures I've seen on this forum...at least for what I like. I considered a single stripe for sure.

I'll keep playing...again, thanks for the "advice"

I'm looking for classy, subtle, and different from the norm.
