Alright so I went and talked to the guys at the auto vinyl place today and they got me thinking about how I'm gonna do this stripe thing. I want to do an offcentered 8" stripe down the hood, grill, roof, and tailgate and a 2" stripe beside it with 1" gap in between.

This is what pushed me over the edge to do this. (Sorry spoolin, I'm totally ripping off your truck)

the thing is I don't know if I want flat black or red. If I do flat black I need to change the "454" on the bed to be the same color, I was also thinking of wrapping the mirrors too since the paint is really faded anyway. This would be very subtle and then there'd only be 2 colors on the truck (black, flat black, red).

or

I could do the stripe red. It'd match the bowtie, calipers, and SS. Good thing, it'd be different and VERY noticable. I am afraid that the stripe might be too "loud" like this though. There will also be 3 colors on the truck then (Black, grey, red)

I think it would look cool to do the stripes in the same grey as the "454" on the bed side, leaving your only red being the bowtie, calipers, and SS.

My wife says nogo on the dark grey. I kinda agree with her. I want as few colors as possible. If I do flat black then there will only be 2 colors really on the truck.
