pin striping with photoshop

Whats the best way to pin stripe using photoshop?? I tried making a long thin long rectangle and using the different transform functions like distort and warp but no luck. I dont want the line to get any thicker or thinner while im bending it around the template. whats the best way to do this??? Im not actualy doing a plane but a car for rfactor. Any help would be most appreciated

Off hand, you might try creating the shape of your pinstripe using paths, then stroke the finished paths with a fixed weight brush. I think that might get close to what you are wanting.

Adlabs is right on as usual...you can also adjust your brush shape to taper at the start and the end of the stroke..Paths are the best way to go though.

I don't think that's what he wants. If I understand right, there is no way to do it aside from making a vectored path and then filling it. But drawing that path will be hard. There's no easy way or trick that I know of.
You're talking this kind of thing?
