hood +stripes

I would like to get the rk ram air hood for my car, but ive also been considering getting black vinyl stripes also... I want to get an opinion on having that hood plus stripes... Do you guys think that it would flow well? or would the ram air portion make it look goofy? if thats not a good look i definitely want to paint the ram air section black, but i wanted a cf trunk also. im not sure wut the car would look like with the one black portion on the hood and cf trunk in the back.. any suggestions?

im looking at 3 different exterior setups. im basically gonna go with whichever would look better.

1. ram air hood with the front ram air portion painted black and cf trunk

2. ram air hood but i also want black stripes on the car. i think it will look odd with the stripes going past the ram air portion

3. cf ram air hood and cf trunk

if you are getting a cf trunk you have to get the hood. the black strips would look dumb with the cf trunk.

lol thnx for clearing that up... im still having difficulty with this. would the cf trunk be ok if just did the front portion of the hood in black or is cf trunk like required to go with hood?

it all depends on how you want it to look. i would think that a cf hood and trunk will look good together, but its not required. are you after style, weight reduction or what. i wouldnt go with cf unless i was wanting a weight reduction. my opinion.

well i want the ram air hood for funcitonality.. i was thinking cf trunk because i wanna do the front portion of the hood in black so i figured it would match a bit. my rims are black and silver so i was trying to follow that thme somehow.. the trunk isnt a must, its a mix between functionality and looks
