Thinking I'm not going to install any of the factory style stripping, just the decal on the deck lid, callout on the header panel and the 400 callout on the hood. What do you guys think, no strips or put them all back on?

Put all the stripes back on - it will look great with the black stripes contrasting the white paint job.
