i thought about it but theres already 4 other white gts in my town and i want something to set it aside from the rest. Plus i think it will go well with the whole white/black theme.

go with the second one, but stop it like 1.5-2 inches above where the hood starts to get rounded down like in the pic MahFiVeOh posted. and maybe think about adding the two lines.

i just painted mine last weekend like that. ive gone the decal route on my last hood and it turned out real nice. but i didnt want to spend the $120 this time so i taped it off and sprayed!

plenty of pics
