Default MPD Hood

So, I have yet to get my car into the body shop to replace the hood, so it's given me more time to kick around the thought of just ordering up the MPD hood. Now, thing is I want to keep my stripes and I just have never seen an MPD hood on a Monte with stripes, so no clue as to what it would actually look like, or how they line up given the dimensions of the MPD. Anyone have any insight?

Also, another question, what's the MPD hood look like from inside the car, can you see the raised portion for the ram air ?

The stock stripes will not fit without modification, I have the MPD hood and I had my stripes modified as you can see in my pic, you can see the raised portion of the ram air but its not that noticeable

Fantastic, that's just the info I was looking for. Do you possibly have a straight on shot of your hood so I can see the layout of the stripes more clearly ?

Thanks for the picture of the hood, that was just what I needed, and I think it's probably time to pony up the loot and order a hood.
