Question: Which stripes with the GT500 front fascia?

I thought I'd add a poll to my site trying to decide which striping I am going to do on the new Trufiber Venom hood I will be ordering and installing this winter along with the GT500 front end that I already have ready to install. I cannot decide to stripe it like the typical GT500 is from Shelby (the blue one in the pic below), or put the stripes all the way on the hood (like the black one with orange stripes). I will be putting back on white stripes like it currently has.

Here is a pics of my latest mod. The Homelink system, which is installed now in most cars, isnt in the Mustang GT. I decided I was going to fix this issue by installing my own and making it look as stock as possible. The front "plate" goes on top of whatever surface you put it on, with the rest of it behind (or underneath). The picture on the left is what it looked like when I received it, and the one on the right is it installed and working. BTW, the lights are not dimmer on the console. It looks that way due to the flash from the camera.

Here is the first picture of what I started with....a totally stock 2006 Mustang GT Vista Blue in color. I have leather interior, a shaker 1000 audio system and a 5 speed manual V-8. The next picture is as it is at the moment with all the current modifications.

The current modification list includes:

8" Dual Shelby stripes (White)
MGW Shifter
Tinted windows
Ultimate Pedals set
Hood shocks
Roush Rear spoiler and side louvers
Bassani X-pipe
FRPP Axleback exhaust
C & L cold air intake w/ Bamachips 91 octane tune
20" American Racing (Shelby) Razor's w/ +24mm offset on Nitto 265/35/R20's
MGW Billet Interior Knobs
Chrome bumper lenses w/ stealth bulbs
Rear Clear side marker reflectors

I took these pics the first sunny day after I bought it. I had to do alot of searching through dealers to find my GT, since evidently finding one that was the particular combination I wanted is either a unique combination or the most popular since I had to go 120 miles away to find the requested options. Initially, I did not want the "Bullet" style chrome wheels, but after seeing this at the dealer, I decided I liked them alot better than I thought I would.

One of the things I was also pursuing for my Mustang to have was I wanted the upgraded sound system (the Shaker 1000). The dealer did make me laugh when he warned me that it would take up 30% of the trunk space. Since this is just a weekend car for my wife and I to enjoy, space is just about the least of my concerns.
