Default Black Stinger

Can someone possibly photoshop this picture?
I am trying to decide if a black stinger would look good on my ride.
Thanks!

I'm sorry dude, I put the idea in your head the other night and then give you no pics

Here's a few ideas first of the Manta, then of the 35th Anniv. Satin insert (I would recommend doing BOTH):

I think anyway you go...

1) Just Manta stripe (including deck and spoiler)...

2) Just satin black insert...

3) Both...

Will look kick *** !

To be honest, I'm also kind of leaning more towards just the Manta (including deck and spoiler) on your car...

SS#2906, With the wheels you have on your car a manta hood would look very slick on it.
