Hood swap

[Tripod]

So on my 72 BB I was only able to take the pancake LS6 intake for so long. I needed the engine to breathe and let some heat out. So on went an RPM Air-gap and had to put a repop L-88 hood on.....and it "Barely fits" with a drop base air cleaner. I mean 1/4 tops.

My original BB hood is hanging up but the question is "Do I carry the paint theme over to the L-88 or paint it Black?".

Thoughts?

You could try something like this.

Hmm not sure if I like it broken up like that. The first pic I posted has it run through all the way to the back and one continous motion. The total blacked out hood idea may provide the same appeal but I don't know paint etc.
