Default Mopar Challenger style hood...

So i picked this up for a super good deal!
My question is, should I just paint it and be done, or is this the time for a custom job? Like some stripes or anything? Thoughts?

Those are sweet!

Personally, though, if I had one I would just paint it to match the truck. I would be afraid it would be way too "busy" looking with the intakes and then a bunch of graphics as well. Just IMO...

Did you get that oof the guy on dodge talk? I was watching that hood and was suprised it took so long. I would do a custom job around the hood. However if you keep everything red that would look pretty sweet to.

Yup, I came across it the other day and just couldn't pass it up.

That challenger style hood looks sharp. I would just paint it to match your truck unless you plan to pinstripe the entire truck. I guess it depends on what you plan on doing but I think that doing just the hood might look odd.
