extended blisters/raised stripes

I've been kicking the idea around for a while of extending my hood blisters to the front and read of the hood and then the deck lid and spoiler. I have a couple extra hoods and deck lids and spoilers but before I waste countless hours I justed wanted to know if it's been done and if so does anyone hove photo's.
From what I am invisioning it should just look like factory stripes but raised 3/4".
What does everyone think, good idea or bad?

I'd have to see it to decide. I think it would look better if the started at the factory point in the front and then extended back to the rear, but like I said I'd have to see it to tell, any photoshoppers?

The hood blisters rise up 3/4" from the hood, he wants to extend then the length of the hood and back onto the decklid thus creating raised "stripes".

Starting at the factory spot is a good idea, Might try that look first then play around with the front extension. Photo shop help would be great any takers.
