I think it would look better painted mineral grey, but, its your car bro, and at the same time, it looks good like this for now too .

I really like Cowl hoods. Their's some Mach owners that get their Shaker hood painted 3/4 black for a bigger blacked out theme. That hood is completely black. If it was me, I'd have it painted the stock color.

Cobra R hoods are sex on any Mustang. Doesnt matter what year, seriously.

It looks good black but it might "flow" better if its MG... either way it looks badass.

If it were mine, I could definitely live with it being how it is, though I agree that 2-toned would look killer.

I think the new hood looks awsome. The black hood flows well with the black wheels. I would either leave it like it is or atleast leave the actual cowl part of the hood black and paint the rest of the hood the same color as the car

I vote 2 tone since you already have a MG and Black accent theme.

It would recall the patch on the 69 Mach 1's.
