Here's a pic of my 73 Cuda from last year. I think the white stripe contrasts the black paint really well and the stripe also accentuates the lines. Hope this pic helps you make up your mind.

Both will look good.  White stripes will have more "pop" but Matte Black looks more aggressive (in my opinion).  BTW - no matter which way you decide to go, I sell them for $75/set

my first idea was to have a stripe delete car. But when i remove the ****ing silver stripe the previous owner have installed on my card, i saw the guy who install the previous stripe use probably a small knife... so at a couple place i think he cut the stripe on the paint..

it is hard to see it but it is my car and i know all default LOL all people didn t see this but i see this it is why i will re-install a decal kit... so now.. white or flat black it is the question :)

How deep are the scratches?  Most of the time they can be wet sanded and buffed out.  Have you tried that yet?  If you really like the way the car looks without the stripes, you should try it or take it to someone with a lot of experience doing it. Best way to find someone to do it for you is to ask other car owners you meet at local shows.  I've seen a guy that worked miracles in DFW with a new Charger that was black and was all scratched up and gouged by another stripe installer.
