Should I paint the hood inserts black??? Tell me what you think.

 

Nope.

They are similiar to the grill, and draw attention to the aftermarket hood.

 

I agree, they look good the way they are... I love that bolt on the grill...

 

I'd probably try running 2-3 strips of tape over them and then paint them black. Remove the tape to reveal the silver underneath. At a distance, they'll match your billet grills.

Or, you could always install Street Scene grills to match the inserts.

 

Hey My01Bolt, Where can I get one of those billet lightning bolts?

Looks good

I wana get the grill ! i like it

 

Thanks for the input... I think I'll leave them as they are
Struckby99 - The lightning bolt came from www.billetandacrylic.com in Florida. Phone # 561-567-7645. I paid $39.00 inc S&H last year. They are really nice people, great to deal with.

 

No way!! Its looks trick!!

 

i would NOT paint them, but it would look sweet with the horizontal lines that match the grilles.

 

Nope leave it the way it is makes the ram air scoops pop out more then painted black.

 

You could go to a custom shop like blwnhd_#34 did and get a mini billet grille for it. Fits like 3 or 4 bars and looks awsome cuz it all matches. Thats what i'm gonna do when i get mine.

 

where did you get the hood inserts? i need them for my hood.

 

Have you considered doing this?

I know the pic is not all that good but if you look closely you'll see lightning bolts behind each scoop. I just thought of this and might do it myself.

This whole thing is a photoshop joke, correct?

 

Who's joking? I photoshopped the lightning bolts into the scoops but didn't mean it as a joke.
