It'll be too "crowded." I'd leave it as is.

I vote for SS hood with scoop painted black, or if your against the SS hood, try some black hockey stripes! Car looks sick!

SS hood with the black scoop would be much cleaner than the other options.

I say you send me those rims for free right now. Or at least PM me where I can pick up a set.
I would go with black rally stripes.

Rims look good. I'd go with rally strips, also put some new chrome halos.

You must have forgot to post your car picture in the Arctic White Camaros thread.

Here's something I threw together to give you a better idea, so you don't waste money on something you're not ever sure about, but if I had the money or if you wanted to save for it I'd go ahead and get the ss hood with the scoop black like many are suggesting.
