Well all pearl stripes are two layers. White Base, then pearl/mica mix, then of course clear. So you would have to factor in extra labour, extra cost of paint would be neglible for stripes.

Stripes on my GT40 are white pearl and I'm stoked with the result. With modern white pearls, you don't have to have that ivory resultant colour any longer, you can get very crisp pure pearls. Just be careful with number of pearl coats, the more you put on, the more discoloured it will get. I got 3 coats of pearl put on the white base...perfect.
