Truthfully I dont like either of them, they both look out of place to me. But if I had to pick one it would be the black.

Black looks right at home with the roof and side view mirrors IMO. The Hugger Orange is nice but you'd have to do alot more to tie it in.

I really like the white/black look, it makes everything match well. Black windows, Decals, maybe rims? Hugger is a great color but White/Black looks much better man.

Out of the two choices...black. If it were me however, I'd wouldn't bother with the stripe and paint the mirrors and roof panel white. Give it that 'mono' look. White, dark windows, big blingin' wheels,

I'm leaning more towards the black! I had the mirrors and roof painted white on my old camaro and like the black accents better on this one!

black looks better, unless you paint the mirrors and roof white and make the orange stripe go all the way over the car and onto the trunk too.

Derek98Z,

Ok thanks man!

Nineball,

Yeah I think I'm gonna go with black! How much did it cost to have your hood done?

Thanks for all the feedback!
