Help me decide what to do with my hood please!

So i just wrapped up some new mods on my 2005 vert. I installed a foose stallion hood and I can't decide if I should leave it all silver or paint portions of it black. I ws thinking I would paint the center section of the hood along the raised body lines black like Pascal, the mod over at the s197 appearance forum has his. someone also suggested just the dead center raised arrow section of the hood black too. Can someone do me a photoshop to help me decide? Any other options would be welcome as well. Thanks!

Edit:

In the vein of you never know if you don't ask, any Ps gurus able to giving me an idea what the car would look like with the xenon aggressive body kit installed? I am planning to add it in the next round of mods.

here are the hood chops; imo, with your look, i think i would just do the 'arrow' part. you don't see that very often and it looks cool

Sweet thanks, I wasn;t clear on teh black part, i didn't mean the entire hood black. I meant to the first rasied lines about 6-inches in from the seam between the hood and the fender gap. I do like the center arrow only as black. Would you just do the top, or the sides of the arrow too?

*self-headslap* i know what pascal's car looks like; i don't know why i made it that way (i can re-do it for ya if you'd like)

if it were me, i'd probably do it similar to the way i chopped it since the top of the arrow has sort of a 'line-break'; otherwise, i'd probably blend it (fade out) from that 'point' into the rest of the hood, but i'd imagine doing it that way would be kind of expensive

NBD, thaks for the work. i think I might stick with the plain hood for now. i found some foose tribute stripe sin vinyl I coudl throw on just to see if I like them before having them painted. Still, i like the clean looks of the silver for now i think.
