That's a nice hood.

IMO, I would paint it yellow to match the rest of the car, and put
dual thin dark red (burgandy) lines, separated by 1/8 inch completely around the top area of the vent to the back of the hood.

Also, the 427 badges would set it off too.

All yellow. There's plenty of contrast with the tinted glass.

I like the dark signals! How'd you do that? Or should I ask, where did you get that? As far as the hood, if you decide to go black on that, it'll come almost like a two tone. IMHO, yellow!

Leave it. I'd like to see it with the B-pillar and roof painted black as well. It would look sexy with your tinted windows and the black hood.
Match the paint (fix the finish on the A-pillar).

All yellow, but with ~maybe~ some subtle stripes to offset.

Default the signals

along with the tail lights they are painted. one of the guys in the body shop I use paints tail lights, markers and headlights after his normal work day as a side job. Its good because you can chose how dark you want them.[IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]
