Default opinions on manta stripe

I want everybody's opinions on if I should have the manta stripe continue to the back or just have the hood. I like the hood stripe but I'm going to get it painted on because I hate vinyl I just wanted to see what it looked like with a manta is why its on there

I think it would look good because you already have the black berger, so the flow would be good

You could look at mine and probably answer for yourself whether you like it or not.

Painting all the way back just ties it all together. Nice look, clean. Stands out without shouting "Look at my Rice!"
