/* ------------------------------------------------------------------ *
 * Shared header treatment for the "Is a [year/model] a good used car?"
 * guide pages. A decorative paint-streak band spans (near) the full page
 * width, breaking out of the 760px content column, with its left/right
 * edges faded into the background and a dark gradient overlay on top so
 * the eyebrow and title stay fully readable. Decorative only.
 * Width is capped below 100vw so it never introduces horizontal scroll.
