Do S550 Shelby Le Mans stripes follow the original GT350 dimensions?

[Cobra Jet]

So I was wondering and have not seen it discussed (yet).

Do the S550 Shelby GT350 or Gt350R Le Mans stripes follow the same dimensional pattern and spacing as those on the original 1965/66 GT350?

For reference, I’m including the following PDF that discusses what I’m asking in better detail.

Yes, but unless I missed it, I’m not seeing any dimensional aspects of the actual Le Mans stripes. I had seen the rocker “GT350” hand drawn rendering with the measurements used on that GT350, but that is not the interest.

Simple answer, no.

No, because the proportions of the car looks different

Updated the thread with some measurements. They definitely taper. They are not the same measurements as the 65 because they are different cars with different dimensions. The ones painted on my car are significantly wider than the vinyl ones that the car came with. The most narrow portion is on the rear at 9 7/8 inches and most wide is at the top of the hood by the front glass at 12 inches.
