Default Got the hood painted, need opinions.
tell me what you guys think.







So for the decals, should I leave it like it is, get the ram air decals, or the black bird stripes

Wait on the decals. I like it clean. You can always add some later if you're bored.

I say Blackbird if you can find the right color, but it does look clean with nothing on it.

I like it now.
If you added the real small ram air decal it would be okay, but I think it looks nice as is.

Why don't you do the bird stripes in metallic silver?

When your paint is flawless, no need for decals...

In my opininon, the Blackbird stripes make the Ram Air hood look better. I'd go with a set of silver or black stripes.

Looks awesome and I love that color . I would have to agree with some of the previous replies. Keep the vinyl off for a while till you get bored with it. Then add blackbird stripes in metallic silver or black (I say go for silver)
