Thinking about wrapping my hood flat black..

Yes, the black hood is precisely what makes this car look awesome. That other stuff is just window dressing. Psh.
A hood that happens to be black - but is also carbon fiber or fiberglass and has functional cutouts so it serves a purpose AND is lighter than the factory hood - is cool. A vinyl-wrapped hood - which is the factory hood PLUS a quarter-pound of stickers - is less so.

The rounded end of the strip makes me think "pantyliner" - but maybe I've just seen one too many of those in situ and the rest of you don't see feminine hygiene products in your paint.

WHY?!
And, while I don't think I can add anything that hasn't already been said, you can count me in on the "not a fan" list when it comes to black hoods...or even CF hoods, for that matter. I'm also with Groovzilla on not really liking black wheels either. And, FWIW, I also don't understand why people black out the gas cap lids on cars either. I'm not so offended by the fender guards although I agree they're totally unnecessary on a narrow body but I don't see them as an improvement to the NB cars.
