Stripes or not, unless you plan on opening it up for flow, the inside stinger scoop vertical piece looks best blackened.

I think you'll be safe either white or black .. but it does need something. The stinger jus kind of disappears without it.

... Is that &quot;Hugger Orange&quot; pint color ? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

.... You may want to go with a &quot;black&quot; stinger stripe rather then white

.... since you have added the &quot;black&quot; tail panel

...just a suggestion [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/worship.gif[/img] </div></div>

No, Correct color it just looks orange from my phone pictures

Just my opinion, but do you want your car to look like a Corvette or a customized Camaro? &quot;Oh look, he put a Vette hood on his Camaro!&quot;
If it were mine, I'd come up with a nice looking set of stripes or pin stripes (unique to the car). One of one is more impressive.

That's the beauty of the stinger hood. You can style however you want because its already something different that the ice cube tray hood or your run of the mill cowl.

Where in central joisey are you Verne?

Yes, there are lots of neat ideas to accent the hood. Donnie White did a nice job on this hood.

Just outside Princeton. Nothing but farm country until all the yuppies moved in.

Oh man, I'd love to see more pictures of this Camaro. What a perfect 70's Style '69.
