Jason, I think I would consider putting a 1/2 inch wide stripe on the 3 inch step up from the hood to the scoop running from front of scoop to back? May break it up a bit. What does everyone else think?

Dont really like the stripes much, maybe its just the pictures. But combined with the leaping ram...yeah kinda ugly.

You can buy, on e-bay of course, a hood decal just for the scoop. It only covers the top of the scoop though. It does not cover the sides. I have been thinking about finding some decals just to do the sides of mine. I don't think it would look right on my two toned truck to do the whole top of the scoop...

Personally, I think your truck would look better with just a billet insert in the scoop and no stripe. BUT, combined with your other black accessories it will probably still look good....
