Default VFN Sunoco Hood

I have had nothing but trouble with my RKSport SS hood so I am getting rid of it! I am the one that put it on my silver car and when driving it bounced alot, so i just figured that it was because i didnt align it correct.. Well now it is on the Z and it still bounces alot! It bounced so much that it rubbed on my SLP air lid and screwed the paint up on it.. Im sick of it.. Oh yeah, the fiberglass is cracking on it too..

So I guess my question is should I get the sunoco hood with or without the center line? And please explain with you choose which you choose..

My Car


Without Center Line



With Center Line

I voted with because of your freedom design spoiler. I think it kinda flows with the more "menacing look." As did projectcamaro did with his

Agreed... Normally I like the smooth look. But I think the centerline will match well with your spoiler.

I voted with to be different but you can't go wrong either way

You could also get the one with the line and have it sanded down some...

Anyways, here's better pics (because they are both black):





Again, for black, I say be different and go WITH
