Rick that came out very good!!!

Any chance that you would ever paint the side scoops black to form a contrast? Below is a 2013 Mustang CS & its a white car with the side hood scoops/breathers painted black (as an example). It would match with the Z06 black brake ducts.



Just a thought, again looks bad-***!!!!

Damn that car would be perfect if it wasn't for the checkered flag sequence going on in there. Too each his own though, badass ride man. Love the new hood

Your car really looks badazz with the mods you've done. That hood really makes a difference.

I have to agree that some color contrast on the hood would really be icing on the cake.

Patience....I still need to order the two red stripes for the car from Vetteessentials later...... There will be a striking contrast then.
