Default Looking for opinions

When I pulled the door bumpers off of my '05 I threw them up onto the hood. I stepped back and thought what the hell. So I decided to lay the strips down onto the hood following the accent line. I ahve been getting a lot of poeple checking it out and some compliments, but I have yet to decide if it will stay. What do you think?

That's a creative idea. It doesn't really add or detract from the style that much. I mean, if you're trying to give the hood some character.. this doesn't really do a whole lot for the eye. If you're trying to define the lines, it does. To me, it just looks sorta unnecessary. If you like it, go with it.
