I think you need to soften the corners on those stripes. The car has naturally flowing curves, the abrupt 90* angles on your stripes detracts from its natural body lines and in my opinion doesn't flow as nicely as if you round them off. Also try your first hockey stick all the way onto the header and round off the edges. It looks good as it curves upward on the sail panel. You need to duplicate that same flowing curve upfront for uniformity.
 
I like 2 the best also. Whats good about 2 is you could get the strips done in vinyl so if you get bored of the look, just take them off and do something else.
 
just throwin it out there. yellow and black is gunna look very buick gnx ish. I would choose a different base color. I like option one personally, but bring the hood stripes into the grille.
