Lightbulb Higgs Boson - painting help or ideas?

After spending last week at CERN in a conference about the experiments running on the Large Hadron Collider, I'm all inspried for a new paint job for one of my cars....

This is a depiciton of a proton-proton collision event that might evidence the discovery of the Higgs boson as four muons are traced flying out. Nerdy, yes - but I love it....

exact accuracy of the diagram isn't too important, but I don't want it to look like a pile of spagehetti on the bonnet.

I'm thinking there must be a relativey easy way to paint this - perhaps with some kind of liquid mask that is scratched away on the particle tracks? Any ideas how it might be tackled? Looking forward to the challenge...

of course, I could also demonstrate the paintjob by driving the car at 99.9999999999% of the speed of light into something. Here's some background: http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/LHC/LHC-en.html and http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/.../Higgs-en.html

Cheers,
Ty
