Default What do you guys think?

When I picked up my SS, the black decal between the stripes, in front of the hood grill was bad - bubbled and peeling, so dealer got me a new one....now that I got it off I prefer it off !! Do you think it hurts the value of the car to leave it off? Tell me what you think! <img src="graemlins/gr_chug.gif" border="0" alt="[chug]" />

People will probably call it a Fake or something like that. If you like it, have them you stripe, and keep it. then, you can still put it back on later if you want.

I think it defeats the purpose of having a 35th, if you leave the stripes off. You have a unique car so keep it that way!! If you didn't like the stripes you should have gotten yourself a regular SS and saved the $$$ on the 35th package! Just my 2 cents!!

I actually like the stripes, its the small black decal in front of the hood scoop I am talking about....I liked it, I just think it looks less busy without it, but you guys are probably right, I should keep the 35th the way it came,, thanks!

The more decals you can take off that thing the better IMO.
