Default Would this look homo?

Saw this guys hood on another forum. I thought it looked awesome. All he did was stripped it and polished it. Whats your opinion of doing that with a stock gt hood on an orange mustang? specifically the one in my sig

At the right angle, that would really suck driving it into the sun.

you would also be able to see all the imperfections in the hood a lot more like that also

Yeah i would look for a hood off a junker (rear ended obviously) if i tried to do this, no way i would take paint stipper to my painted hood. It would be easy to get perfections out at least....no paint to burn when polishing.

i like it, but i don't think every color would go well with it. i think it looks slick with the gray of the car.

i think it only looks good in that picture 1. because of the car color and 2. because of the cloudy skies. if it was sunny i bet it'd look like crap. but it is unique.
