Default Need Photo Chop

Can someone help an old fart like me photo chop some strips on my car?

I am looking for tan double stripes that match my tan vert top. I would them on the hood and front and rear bumper.

Here are some photos of the car:

I actually like the black and tan look. Sort of a classy twist to a sports car.

Ok, this is all mspaint. I'll work on the side pic right now. I'd say go for it. Looks sweet.

Hey, thanks for doing that. I think it will look cool. The stripe sample that I have is a bit darker...hard to explain.

I hear ya. I copied a section of the conv top so it woudlnt be one solid color and look somehwat natural. But theres obviously a limit to what I can do w/ mspaint. and that angled view(my 2nd pic) was a bitch to make it look right. oh well

Might wanna let someone a little more experienced step in....I know you want a classy look so since you have that tan top you have to use a similar color for the stripes. I added the old school mustang signiture.Enjoy

The style? no. The execution. yes. Yours looks more natural, but the overal design of one stripe down the middle is ugly.

That looks like the standard GT stripes that came on my car, but they were black. Good photoshop. I am really looking for the lemans look with them going down over the front bumper.

Also, I have a sample that I think is a bit darker. Can you make them a little darker?

Thanks guys for all the help. Having fun watching all the outcomes.
