Demon Blacked Out Hood Treatment?

72 Demon is coming home with a new paint job- medium charcoal metallic. Going with matte black strips, tail panel. I want to do the blacked out hood w/stripes and a dual snorkel. When I was shopping around for best price/quality on the tape stripes I came across Phoenix Graphix. The prices were too good to be true for the quality/good reviews, so I called- apparently they're the manufacturer and are supplying all the people that are jacking up the price ($500-$600 for the same kit in some places). Anyway, while I was talking to them I was told that the skinny hood stripes are tape and the large black center area is painted on. I can't find much literature on this, any thoughts?

FYI- The stripes are 3M and they'll make them in a custom color for a $20 surcharge (no returns on custom colors).
