Which Hood Stripe Looks Better?

I'm trying to decide which hood stripe looks better? ... and will have my Dealer paint on instead of using vinyl.

Please let me know which you think is a better option, but keep in mind I'm not looking to do the stripe on the rear trunk or side hockey stripes either. I may, however, do the strip between the tail lights to offset the rear.

A = Factory Stripe
B = Factory Stripe extended to front of hood line
C = Factory Stripe extended to front of hood line as well as covering the sides of the bulge.

I missed the poll option unfortunately.

Oh well, not much I can do about it now.

I think it would've looked better if photoshopped as paint and not flat vinyl, but I'm thinking that "C" would be easier to do for the dealer.

A.

Simply because if the stripe goes to the edge of the hood like it does in B and C, then the stripe will start peeling long before A will and will need replacing more often which adds up.

However if you are talking painted stripes and not vinyl, then I'll go with B.

Vinyl - B if it can be wrapped far enough onto the underside so it stays secure, otherwise A

Paint - B
