IIRC, the narrow ones were on most cars, the wider ones were for turbos (don't ask me why). Like others have said, suggest wider ones. But I don't think you'd be unhappy either way, particularly with a new paint job.
A lot of gunk will have accumulated between the fender and the cowl, so be sure to clean it out well before the respray. If the fenders are coming off, you'll have much better access.
