Here are some more pics of a car with the same style stripes I went with. It will give you a better idea what yours might look like since both ta's are dark colored

heres a shot of mine. Charcoal metalic hood stripes. I wanted the black bird stripes but some one keyed the top of the driver side "nostril" of my hood. So I wet sanded and laid these down to cover it.

The only sad part is that it took you to wreck your car before you took off those hood scoops

actually, i have a good reason for that. if i were to take off the scoops prior to the accident, there would be a big difference in paint quality under the scoops. i didnt want to have a big spot of odd paint in the middle of my hood. i wouldve taken the the stripes off earlier too, but i was worried about my paint. i didnt have the cash to get the car repainted at the time. you would be suprised but i got a lot of compliments on my hood scoops and stripes. i thought it looked gross.

hmm i like those stripes alot when used on the more subtle ram air hoots, liek the raptor or mecham, but the ws6 and aftermarket ws6 hoods tive too much chape to it and the bird doesntreally look right :/

I wish people would leave opinions like this to themselves
It gives the look like the bird is moving its wings.

Everyone has an opinion, & has a right to state it.
But like the old saying, ...

"Opinions are like azzholes, ..., some of them stink, ..."

(Not that I agree or disagree with the comments made above tho, ...)
