Hoodscoop striping opinions wanted...
 
Guys,

I am debating whether to paint the red 1" gap stripe on my hood scoop, or to leave it all black. I think painting the red stripe in might make it look more "integrated" to the whole vechicle.

Thoughts?

Agreed... Paint the stripe

Yup, paint the stripe.

Rebel73 4/8/08 02:35 PM

Mine has the stripe painted, I'd go for that.

yep, that looks pretty good, alright! Hey, your dyno numbers are pretty darn close to mine. How much boost you running on your Saleen?

Running 8-8.5 lbs boost. . .Wish I still had my Astra Hammond rear louvers. Only had them 1 week before they were stolen at a local mustang club meeting at a pizza joint. They were just too easy to remove. Luckily they didn't damage the car. I was so pissed that I just tinted the rear instead.

Another Stanger stole your louvers? Man, that is LOW....

Agreed, that is just downright awful. It's understandable that these parts are expensive and that most of us have bigger dreams than wallets. But some people just deserve to trip and fall on something.
