Default Post pictures of Cobras with non-standard stripes

I am thinking of putting new stripes on my car and after seeing FatBoy's video of the Italian tour with his red white and blue stripes I started thinking that something different would be fun.

Could all you Cobra owners please post pictures of you cars with atypical stripes and markings to inspire me.

Very subtle stripes. So subtle you can't see them

I will be interested to see what comes up here as I too seek something a little different. Thanks in advance to everyone.

Very subtle - I'm looking for something a little more obvious.

If you have a look in my album, there are a few pics of my paint scheme. It is a little different than most.

A few years back, a saw a Cobra at the London Car Show, with snake skin stripes. If I recall correctly, he free hand air brushed them himself (don't trust my memory though).

It was unique. It was stunningly beautiful. I expect this would not work on every color car. Strangely I do not recall the color of the car.

What a thing of beauty! 'way more maintenance than I'm up for, but WOW!
Glad to see it gets driven (bugs in radiator and RH blinker light) Be a shame to leave it in the garage.

I do somewhere between 3 to 6k miles a year. I have around 30k total. Living in Utah we have some AWESOME mountains to take day long drives in. The front end has a LOT more blasting now than when that picture was taken. Every time David sees my car he comments on the patina and how much he enjoyed seeing one of his creations driven!

I've enjoyed the process of accumulating patina!

The upkeep is much less than you would think. Typically just some windex and a microfiber towel.

Here is mine. Just finished it. At the Sacramento Autorama this weekend. Retro vibe with the red, white and blue. Main stripes are polished aluminum.
