Default Added Hood Scoop - Should I Stripe It Or Not?

I recently added the factory hood scoop. It covered up the hood stripes but I think it looks good as is. I'd be interested in hearing opinions. I like the way the stripes disappear under the scoop, but also think it would look good striped. So, let's hear what you would do. Stripe the scoop or not?

Here are a few different angles:

Thanks!

Stripe it... looks great, but kind of out of place without them.

It sounds like you have your mind made up already.

I think stripes from bumper to bumper is the way to go but your set up looks really nice!

Why don't u be different and leave it as is. I actually really dig it like that, makes the car more agressive looking by enhancing the hood scoop, deleting the goofy look.

The dealer was going to put my hood scoop on yesterday but their was some problems with the paint job that was done. I like the looks of it on yours. Hope mine looks that good. I would stripe it also since you already have them.
