Extending the factory Bonnet Stripes!

Sorry kind of a teaser thread, but I just ordered from Aesthetic Creations yesterday stripes to extend my factory bonnet stripes down over the front bumper and the rear boot and bumper as well. He is making ones exactly like the factory stripes so I can just leave those on. I think it'll look cool, but i guess we'll see, might have them by the end of next week. I'm also blacking out the beltline with 3m gloss black pinstriping. I figure that should hold up just as well as any of the vinyl stuff and I get it for dirt cheap at work. Worst comes to worst...I take it back off lol.

EDIT: Sorry for the tease with no pics, or even having the stripes yet...but my friends are sick of hearing about my car so I have to tell someone!

Well it's just the factory white bonnet stripes nothing special :( But I think with them extended down over the aerokit bumpers front and rear it'll look much meaner...but we'll have to see! Here's a pic of my car from my gallery for now. The weather hasn't been nice enough since I got my car to take any good pics!
