Default Should I remove my 345hp stickers from my hood?(pics)

I got my SS back in December and I am debating if I should take off the 345hp stickers on the hood that the guy who owned the car before me put on. What do you all think?

I like them, but if I was going that route I'd actually have ones made for the power my car was making to the wheels. I also think silver decals look better on a nbm car. Instead of getting the H.O. 350 ones I'm going to get H.O. 346 ones instead.

Well it has the 345hp package. LOL. Yeah I get what your saying. Yeah the 346 ones seem like a good idea

since 345 at the crank is an underrating, put the actual crank #'s on there

Sorry, that a rice mentality. I would leave off the hp badges especially considering they are not factory.

I made those decals on your car and have some 346 H.O. versions available in silver metallic. e-mail me if you want a set. I have a few on hand.

As long as the car has the *** to back up the stickers I say keep them. They look good.

I'm thinking about getting some that say 120HP.

dont put ones on there that say the crank rating, then your gonna catch all kinda crap from other ppl cause you wont be able to back it up.. i say leave it if you like it, but make sure the numbers are to the wheels

i say keep them, they are a nice subtle appearance mod. i would have those if i didnt have the manta stripe. i think they would look great with a chrome hood insert.

I like em, but I would say if you redo them, to use the actual flywheel. All companies rate their cars from the flywheel and it's on the hood above the enigine, I would think I sticker like that would be saying I have a xxxhp motor, not car. Just makes since to me a guess.
