    Neither, just not a fan of non-functional adornments. Sorry, but it’s right up there with non-functional brake vents. What’s the point?

    I voted "Why would you do such a thing"... but I'd preferred to say "Why would you do such a stupid thing".

    I'd vote plasti dip since it'll probably be cheaper.

    I plasti dipped mine and I'm in the process of blacking out all the badging. I think the hood scoop looks weird that it bumps up and then bumps up again so I feel adding a different color to the "scoop" part makes it look a little better. Though with some color trucks I think it might look weird to have a black scoop, personally I would prefer a lower profile hood scoop all together.

    This looks good and functional. I would match it with the pro decal to reduce glare.

    Stawk as FUCK!
    I ordered this sticker for my White Scooped Sport. I feel like you lose seeing the scoop opening with a black scoop blending in. I figure if I don't like this sticker I can always just remove it.

    It's not bad, but if you were gonna black the scoop, I would honestly pair it with that decal on the hood too

    If you're thinking about it,,, do it. If you don't like it peel it off. You're only down about 8 bucks. Try it
