Should I remove my pin strips on the hood?
I was wondering if I should leave the pin strips on the hood or not... I will leave the ones on the body. Please let me know, thanks!

Oh, the red one is mine and the white is my brother's [justint5387].

I for one, think you should remove them goingup the hood yes. But leave the side ones, They do look good.

You can leave the ones ont he side on. I like those, but the ones on the hood have got to go IMO

Though they are a little wider than I would put on, they don't look bad at all. I would paint the windshield trim first.
