I looked at it again, and I MIGHT be good with bringing that dark bit down to the license plate bracket. It seems to flow at the correct angle, and would "complete" the look. Then, the problem is, do you want to extend it at the same angle to the rear of the car? But, I really think I'd consider bringing it all the way down to the plate bracket.

It looks good. The plate bracket idea is not a bad one also. I am just curious as to why the stripe was not brought down to the end of the hood, let alone the plate bracket.

Looks awesome. Another idea might be to get a black overlay for the arrow. Fill in those letters on your front/rear bumper that say PONTIAC with those reflective dome overlays.

It looks pretty damn cool AS is.

it kind of looks like a chop.. the "stripe" seems uneven and wavy.. I would definitely lower it til it comes to a point.. kind of like the pontiac arrowhead.. I would also try to make it wider to fit the full spacing in between the two scoops...

not bad tho.. these are just my suggestions and opinions...

edit: maybe it is the full spacing in between the scoops... either way, my other suggestions are valid! lol

Thanks for the comments everyone! As for the arrowhead suggestions its was already in consideration. The CF aligns perfectly with the arrowhead like i told the bodyshop. The uneven/wavy is mostly do to the lightings in the shop. Why there is a silver stripe at the bottom? Every CF hood owners knows there is a black(no CF) stripe all around the hood and which seems to burn/fade after a while and it had to go away. But the biggest reason i painted the hood is because it was accidented at the bottom and cracked under a bit. They did a perfect job repairing it and i couldn't believe my eyes. The under-hood is silver and clearcoated.

The car looks good. One of my favorite 04+. I like the new look of the hood.
