I like it with more taper too. It looks like the points on the outer stripes are lined up pretty good with the edge of the license plate edge. I think that is the best way to do it. I say the inside edge of the outer stripe is lined up with the edge of the recess.

Oh, I just eyeballed this. Just to show the idea on the car. When its ready for paint itll be sanded and Ill use blue sharp edge tape and check the symmetry with a ruler.

But the issue now is, the stripe is so damn fat at the top of the hood, when I follow it straight back it is fucking wide... like too wide. Suggestions? Thoughts?

I know on the mustangs and camaros when stripes are added the ones the hit the roof are usually wider by an inch on the outside edge to allow the eye to follow the stripes properly
