The only negative I have seen is in the eye of the beholder, I like the contrast between the flat matte vinyl stripes and the gloss clear coat paint. The painted stripes I have seen were covered by clear coat and somewhat lost in the gloss shine. FYI

For those considering, ask a professional paint shop to paint a couple of sample panels in the stripe colors of your choice. This way you can place them on your hood and consider. I ended up going with a dark sapphire blue pearl over top of my black stripes. The blue only shows when the light comes from the right direction. Otherwise they look like shiny black stripes.
