Racing Stripes

I've looked all through this forum, used the search function, checked the net, etc...etc, and cannot find a red V6 Camaro (99) with 2 racing stripes down the middle parts.

Anybody have any ideas where to look? How do they look? I think they'll add a nice look to the car:

Thanks man! Did you mean to use gray, or did it turn out that way because you used transparency? Also, are there different styles people use?

Ones that bend outward a bit? The standard seems to be what you have pictured here. Do these usually go from the extreme front to the extreme back (down the actual back of the car, or do they stop at the spoiler?)

Edit: Also, aren't there different styles even for the straight lines? There are those straight lines, but then aren't there also small pinstripes on the edges of each of those lines?

Actually I looked at your rims, and I did silver cuz I think silver would look sweet with those rims.

Usually people don't go all the way front to back (viper style)
But as you can see on my webpage (Page 4) I went all the way. And I loved it. If you aren't going to go all the way then check Picture #1 below for a nicely done set of stripes that aren't viper style.

Yes.. the old school dodge R/T style has those tiny lil extra pinstripes. I think those can look cool as hell if you duplicated the EXACT Dodge Width (don't go too narrow).

The viper GTSR style has jus straight edges.

Here are some other examples you can use:
