Sunoco Hood w/ or w/out body line? Hey guys I'm getting a VFN Sunoco Hood for Christmas and I'm having a hard time deciding which to get. Sunoco hood with or without the center body line? My car is a 2002 Z28 w/ the factory sport appearance package w/ stock rims. As of right now I'm thinking of removing the GFX package, lowering the car, new set of deep dish rims, and having the VFN Sunoco Hood w/ body line. Any suggestions or pics would be great. I hope someone can show me a pic of a black Z w/ a sunoco hood w/ body line. I have seen a few red and pewter ones w/ and a black z without. If at all pos. i would like to see head on pics to get an idea of what its going to look like.
I have done a search on this board for Sunoco Hood and seen so many pics and there are pics that I seem to want to body like and others were I think its better without the body line.

I'm not positive of what the stripe looks like, but if its the one that goes along the sides of the scoop I think it looks good. To each his own, but I think it would look good either way.

Picture someone taking a piece of side molding and sticking it on the center of the hood and you've got the idea...

mine is without the line but there is a very distinct line missing in the hood that is in the fender. It does not blend well without the line. I am sanding down the line on my bumper cover down to the base of it to get rid of the line.
Unless you plan on sanding the bumper line smooth then go with the line

Without... If the line on the bumper was more pronounced I would say with. The line down the center is not even close to what it was like with 1st and 2nd gens.
