Would this be TOO busy?

I want to add stripes to my Z. I've been wanting to go with 30th SS stripes for awhile now and may just paint them on to get them exactly the way I want (semi-Viper stipe deal) But lately I have been liking the Hockey stripes more and more, especially since I have been seing pics show up of them on LT1 Camaros.
So here is the question, Would having both SS stripes and hockey sticks look too busy on my car (read: look like crap) or should I do only one, or a compromise (Manta and Hockey sticks)

Anyone seen pics of the above mentioned combo?

Too much in my humble opinion.

Go with one or the other - whichever one you like more.......

Yeah, that does, especially red on white. Not to mention aren't those a variation of 35th stripes?
For my car I'm thinking black on red. Hmm, Manta and hockey sticks might actually look better.......
It's just that I think the side of my car will look too plain once I have stripes on the top, but I don't want to over do it. Speaking of over doing it, I'm going to snap a few pics of a Z that is a few blocks away from my house that is waaaaay over done. It looks almost hideous. I won't mention any details until I get pics to post, don't want to spoil the surprise

The red/white car is interesting but it's starting to look like a candy cane
