Once you get that sail panel painted, all the black on the top will flow together. I think it will look good, post some pics when its done.

You know I think I like it all except the black hood it just looks unfinished. Now if the hood was silver with maybe a black stripe or somethin that might be cool but the whole hood black doesnt look right to me.

I think the black spoiler looks alright since there's so many other black accents on the car but paint the hood!

+1 on painting the hood. or maybe leave the tops of the nostrils black and paint the sides silver. looks a little "unfinished" right now. i think theres a white LT1 T/A on ls1tech that kinda has the black top theme. otherwise....very badass, and very unique.

looks aight.. one thing that throws me off is the headlight/hood line.. maybe paint the headlights black when u do the sail panels.. two tones usually extend below the hood line in a tasteful manner... but looks good.. just my .02

I am with the majority here I think the black hood just looks unfinished. I like the idea of maybe painting the headlights black also, but I think if you would paint the sides of the hood the color of the car and leave the Ram Air part black it could look good also.

i think the hood bein black would look better if your headlights were black, and you painted the nostrils on the front bumper black to. the hood goes from black to silver without rly any transition. hot car tho, like the solid black wheels!

How about painting the hood black and getting black racing stripes to compliment everything that is black on the car, now that is a good choice IMO, or even black stripes on the outside sides of the cowl....I think they are called blackbird stripes?
