As someone that doe this stuff for a living, i love the idea..... needs abit of work to get it right but i think it will work well once implemented properly. Definitely needs to follow the body crease and follow onto the hood.

But if it follows that body crease and goes across the roof, where does it go down the other side? No chance it'll match the angle of the crease over there?
As you say needs a bit of thinking before you commit to it, but could look good.

I think he means across the hood covering the engine bay but I'm pretty sure most people on here are from the UK so for me the lingo is hard to differentiate

That was the idea. Sadly the wife isn't too keen, and
a) it is her car, and
d) she's bought me 2 vehicles[1] today
I don't really want to upset her

Lucky you! My wife doesn't have a car or a license, so having one that's bought you two cars sounds like you're living the dream!
