I think it will look better.
Maybe later you can somehow incorporate the stripes...somehow.
But for now, those hoods look great, and make any monte look mean.

are you going to completely do away with the stripes, as in on the trunk lid too, or leave those on and just replace the hood, and i'm with Jomao_o, if your spending the money to buy prep and paint the hood, you could probably go all the way and get the stripes redone, i think it'd look pretty damn sick

I'd find a way to keep the stripes too. I've seen it done before, I just can't find the pic of the one I saw with it all together at the moment

hoods are a solid investment in your monte's look. im so happy i have mine. its crazy how many looks it pulls. i got mine before pfyc.com reduced price,it was at like 750. my hood was about $1200 total.

next on my list: im gonna repaint the entire car deep blue metallic

except the hood scoop, side skirts, and the spoiler. they will stay black


there goes my red under the hood theme lol!
