"To Hood or not to Hood"...That is the...

Question?
After lift, wheels and tires, bumpers, lights, etc. I am reconsidering the addition of a different hood. Because:

A) It may blend to the overall look making everything look better or

B) It will be to overwhelming to the overall look

If I do the hood, it will be the SRT10 or the SUNCOAST
Either hood will be painted Dull black like the bumper/grill
I will be doing the ****** 53 black head lights.

What do you guys/gals think?
Here are a few pictures of the truck as it is now:

Definitely thumbs up on a scooped hood for your truck. It's gonna look fierce with your bumper!

I always liked the look of a black hood. I had a dull black Six-Pack hood on my Lime Green Road Runner years ago and I just thought it looked awesome.... I'm not sure it will look that great on your new truck though. I would definitely get someone to Photoshop it for you...

Great idea!
Who is the member with the large photo of the front of truck with the SRT10 hood?
It is a bright electric blue truck (the new mopar blue). I need to copy the pic so I can take a similar picture for a good photoshop.

Here is the guy, love his truck. I think he has a Kore 3 inch front/1 inch rear type lift on it and some centerline wheels with 5 inches backspacing on them and some Toyo M/Ts now.

I've talked to him a few times about his wheels... before I bought my KMCs.

That is a sport grill on his truck, I believe he got it from the dealer with the hood before he picked up the truck new...

Also, he is a pretty good guy, PM him and he'll get back to you..

Go with the hood, but then of course I am a little biased.

I think a matte black SRT-10 hood would be great looking.
