So I'm thinking about taking the stripes off my hood. Not sure about how it's gonna look. Any opinions? e4eba1834ac87e050eece92fea471829.jpge23db6052275b8f38d3331d786efe209.jpg

Leave them on. The stripes give your truck the "pop" look without them it just won't look good

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, but also was thinking the front would just be clean with the full paint hood

Personally, I like the stripes. I LOVE the Orange, but I think without the black to break it up, it would become too much. I like the black accents on the Orange.

Never been a big fan of stripes but on your color I would leave them.

Like another poster said, they make your truck "pop"

Yeah you guys are right, it's gotta get broken up. Probably the smarter choice lol.

Just tear them off and see what happens. It's a simple decal kit, easy to put back on.
In my opinion I like them though. That bright ass orange needs to be broken up with something. Maybe look into different decals?

it may be a simple decal kit, but it's an expensive decal kit. I just bought the OEM set for my truck and it's 150$. There are cheaper knockoffs out there but they seriously lack in quality. So, simple? Yes. Expensive? Double yes lol

I actually almost pulled the trigger on the Orange when they released it in '15... 3 months after I just bought my '14. Couldn't come to an agreement on price... we were about $4k apart. I had already made up my mind, and my wife's, to add even more black decals on the bed of the truck to break up the Orange. There were a few bed stripe decals that we thought looked really good with the Orange paint.
