VentureShield Install - Should I cover Stripes?

Getting my Ventureshield on Monday. Trying not to get any chips before then.

Anyway, I am thinking of getting the hood covered. The partial cover that can be done would leave part of the MAtte Black Stripes glossy and part not, so I am planning to cover the whole hood.

I guess I am looking for what you guys think, or others have done.
1) Should I cover the whole Hood?
2) Should I cover the whole hood but cut around the stripes?
3) Should I not cover any of the hood?

If I do cover the whole hood, do you guys think that the rear stripes will look funny not covered also (Flat Black in the rear, but glossy on the front from the shield).

Has anybody covered the trunk/spoiler stripes just to make them match the front?

Thanks
Reeko

if i was doing it,i would cut around the stripes.reason being,you can't partially cover the stripes.that would look goofy.if you cover the hood,the back stripes will look goofy.just my opinion.

I had it done. I did not have my hood done, I did not want to cover the stripes. It came out just fine.
