Default Hood work please.

Power washer killer my hood stripe so I had to peel it off since it looked like crap with spots missing.

On the first pic I have two dots. I'm looking to see how it'd look black from the dot up towards the shaker. One from the lower body line I marked upwards and one from the higher body line. If you need a different picture just let me know. Thanks !

Couple others if they might work better.

Does this work?
Sorry I am really bad with stripes.




The style looks great.
Your car is gorgeous, btw.

Thanks Tanner, you're the best ! And thank you for the compliment. I'm trying to figure out what to do with my hood now. Most guys do this but I don't think I want that much paint on mine.



I'm leaning towards your first chop. Oh well, I got time to think about it, winters almost here.

No problem.
^ That does look good.
But I agree, it kind of takes away from the car to have so much black.
I like how the OE stripe has a small space between the end of the hood and the stripe.

Thats my other thing, carry the stripe all the way down to the front of the hood by the pony, or leave a gap.

If you really want to learn a few things on photoshop the best thing to do is look at a few tutorials on Youtube. After you learn how to do a few things, then it all becomes pretty easy.

Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks a ton Tanner ! and I'll have to look into those tutorials because I'd really like to be able to do this kind of stuff myself. Hate bothering people with it.
