hey should i put a hood scoop and racing stripes on mine. would black stripes look good on that paint

richmod

Okay, you asked, so....

Stripes - yes
Scoops of any kind (including your side scoops) - no unless functional
Bling Bling rims - no (i know you didn't ask about the rims but if you keep them on it doesn't matter what else you do to the car).

Hi, I think your car looks great as it is, but twin silver or black stripes would be a nice touch.

I agree with richmod. +The non function scoop looks lost on the 05-07. If you have a supercharger that requires extra clearance, by all means get a cowl!

Black stripes, I also agree no scoop unless functional.

You need to do what makes you happy with the car...As you can see, my answer is yes to both.....

Same answer, except "no" on stripes.

Mike - how did you black out the bottom part of your front fascia? Looks great.

My scoop is fake I know, but I still like the way it looks. I used it in my stripe scheme (have it going over the scoop too). The one nice thing about the factory scoop is the hole in the hood is already pre-cut in case I ever wanted to use it for some reason, shaker or whatever... not sure that I ever will, lol. But still, I could avoid the horror of cutting...

I like the idea of stripes. As far as the scoops, it depends on the type. I don't really like the large boxy types. Both of the posters above me have very nice looking scoops in my opinion.

I wouldn't be concerned about function vs. nonfunctional. Shakers aren't really dyno proven to add any horsepower or at least I haven't seen any proof. If it doesn't add any horsepower, is it really functional?

Lots of people have factory nonfunctional rear spoilers and chin spoilers. I don't think a hood scoop is any different from those parts.

I think with the scoops you already have, a scoop on the hood might balance things out some. Stripes? I had some and took them off.
