Edit both screen width and screen height + boot width and boot height.

Best thing to do is take a widescreen image you like, and use Preview.app to resize it to a VESA resolution (such as 1024x768). When the image stretches, it will look right.

Set your video mode in com.apple.Boot.plist if it is supported by your video card (must be VESA 3.0 compatible for widescreen resolutions)

I think you're out of luck with any Intel graphics though.  The stretch method is best for you.
