Default WS6 Trufiber Hood Installed

I just picked up my car from having my hood painted.

I'm debating on if I should put decals on the hood. Any decals would be red so I was originally thinking of going with the red blackbird stripes but now I'm second guessing and am thinking that might be overkill on the red.

The three options are:
Leave it blank and clean
red Ram Air Decal
red Blackbird Stripes

I do have to slightly adjust the drivers headlight cover.

I've never been a fan of the Blackbird Stripes. Get the Red Ram Air decals. It will be nice subtle touch of red but not extending the whole length of the hood like the Blackbirds.

Ram air decal.

Red black bird decals would be an ugly overkill IMO

Then again I'm a black and white person, not a big red fan

I agree with Babbage. Either that or get the ram air decals in black against the red and white. I bet it'd look sweet. In the end though it's all up to you and what makes you happy.

Thats about what my photoshop attempt looked like.


Thanks for the opinions. I'm still trying to find a picture of a white T/A or Formula with the red stripes before I 100% decide. I'll keep searching!
