Should I paint the hood scoop black or paint the hood black with the pinstrip down the side of the scoop. Help me decide. Include your comments.

 

without the pinstripe looks cleaner

 

Cleaner set up looks better to me ( plane black scoop )

 

i like the pinstripe!

 

this is the first time i cant make up my mind! I love them both!

 

a woman with nothing to say

 

Definitely looks better without the stripe.

 

I like the pinstripe because it reminds me of the pinstripe around SS stripes on old Chevrolet Muscle cars, El Caminos, Chevelles, Camaros.
Just my opinion.

No pinstripe. My red Z had the black on the SS hood scoop without the pinstripe and it was much meaner and cleaner-looking.

 

i really like the new manta not sure if i can say who sells it but it's 3rdgendecals.com... i was thinking of either doing that or leaving it without, the whole thing painted looks like it was slapped on there with no functionality IMO. kinda like the GT Stang' scoops.

 

Mine has the pinstripe and I wouldn't have it any other way. To me it brings it out even more.

 

No choice, Without looks WAY better and cleaner IMO

 

Love the pinstripe...
lol, obviously this is a subject as split as Democrats and Republicans

 

DAM!! I tied it up!! With the pinstripe.

 

stripe!

 

i think the pinstripe makes it look more finished than w/o

 

:squint: ok no pinstripe for me....

 

Pinstripe is always a nice touch to me.

 

 

I am on the fence on this one, cause I am wanting to get this done to my SS as well. I also saw one with what I guess you would call a pin stripe that actually went along the line of the lower edge of the scoop. In other words, the pin stripe is not seperate from the actual manta stripe. they are connected at the front, but they are seperated at the rear.
