Im sold on the black supersnake. It will create some nice symetry with the pony package grille



My dilemma now being whether to have it painted or use vinyl. And if I got it painted do you think they could sand that ridge down the center of the hood down?

They can do anything you want them to do, though I think your suggestion might look kind of off. I would probably just do vinyl. It will only last a few years, but painting is very very expensive, and a huge hassle. With vinyl, every couple of years you go into the shop and drop 500 bucks and the stripe is new again. Paint also chips/gets scratched and fixing that is not as simple as re-striping the front bumper.

This may be a bigger hassle than its worth

To get the stripe on the clear bra would have to come off. then go back on. Ay carumba

Its worth noting tho that ive had factory vinyl rochers for 2 years no issues

Of course the clear bra would have to come off lol.
You did not think of that before?

I still say it would be worth it and look great.

True...

Although im also thinking about getting into the autocross scene. I want to get Steeda Sports or Comps, Koni Sports, and some swaybars. Id also love to do a workover of the entire driveline... 3.73s, Aluminum Driveshaft, T3650 Swap, Spec clutch, and an Xcharger.

So many mods, so little $$$

Hoe hard would it be to do a vinyl supersnake stripe with that split?
