1971 'Cuda side rear stripe modified

[CudaMoparRay]

I have always had a problem, even more in 1971, with the massive bill board call out stripe on the 'Cuda models. Otherwise love everything else unique about that model year.
Here is my solution with cutting down some of the overpowering aspects, at least in my opinion.
I like that the HEMI can be enlarged to cover more than the tip on the door and maybe a Plymouth cutout also to break up the big "patch" look and allow more paint to show through.
What do you guys think?

I love the original billboard stripes, but can see how they are not for everyone.  They are loud and proud and in your face.

 What about making a strobe stripe out of it?

AAR strobe meets bill board.

Why mess with perfection ?

Why mess with perfection ?

That's what I told my wife when she mentioned about me going to the gym.

What about a mirror/reversed image with 340 and Plymouth and an out line, then it's mostly body color

Maybe strobe the Plymouth?

I like the delete option myself. Billboard makes the car "unclean" IMO.

There are times when I feel like I'm warming up to them little by little lol
Don't be surprised that after all this debating with myself I end up either not putting them on or put them on just like OEM with no custom modifications.
Besides they would then match my Prize Shop 'Cuda hats and T-shirt lol

You mean like this?

Also thinking about putting one of these somewhere on it.

Other art work to be considered.

Okay: I don't hate that Orange one's rendition.

I like the orange one too.  It's either a digital print or air brushed.

I believe reading in the article that it was air brushed.
I would probably use a thin solid black line instead of the thicker fade in/ghosted line as in the picture for even more intrusion to the paint job.
This one seems to keep with the traditional '71 Cuda image and still manage to allow 90% more paint to show through.

One last batch of example ideas but the more I look the more the original billboard gets more comfortable for me.
If I put a black landau top on it would even be more congruent for me.
Especially, as the last picture looks more like my car color and the black does not seem to overpower it too much.
