I'm really liking the flat black!! I got word back from the bank today that my loan was approved, but because I just bought a house a larger downpayment was required than we had previously discussed...... I hope this works out and then I will be driving this by the end of tomorrow night.....

I think it looks better in the first pic without anything on the hood at all now that the top is body colored.

Well I finish up the last of the appearance changes to the Boss. Put the matte black hood stripe on and unlike the other changes I am not real happy with it. It looks fantastic from inside the car, what a difference but with the factory shinny side stripes it does not look good. When I had the rear done (deck lid and spoiler) it looked fine with the side stripes the way they were but the hood is totally different.
I was going back and forth about doing this but you never know until you try. I think the Boss would look fantastic with the hood and side stripes all in flat but I do not plan on replacing the side stripes. I thought it would look OK with flat on top and the sides original and that is why I tried this. I think I may have to go back to the original stripe but will miss the way it looks from the inside and the less glare you get.
Just a shot without the hood stripe. I was amazed at how easy the factory stripe peeled off, took me all of two minutes and that was my biggest fear to start with.
here is looking at the car straight on, looks good this way
and here from the side
The stripe was not easy to do, it is very big. I started by lining up the rear and then working forward. In the end it still finished off center at the front, it really is an art form and this was a little big for someone without experience.

Yellow Boss>>>Please post pictures of the Matt black stripes.
I will also agree with Yellow Boss on sales.promotorstripes@gmail.com. I also used them and found the same quality of help. They will work with you until you like the finish product. I had a Hood decal done and I'm just waiting to receive it. Most important is the price and quality of there work. I give it a 10!
