Got my new Mr. Norms Super Stock this week and put it on yesterday. The scoop is 3" in the back and progresses to 5" in the front.I love the way it looks now i have to decide whether i should have it painted body color or organisol, which is textured satin black paint which was used on the original T/A's and AAR's. Your opinions, bad or good are welcome.

Looks great! One vote for "textured satin black".
I think it looks good as it is plus keeping clean shouldnt be a problem. Organisol will fade and will crack...
I vote leave it as is it looks good blacked out if you decide to paint it later its no biggie.

Absolutely keep it as is...looks killer!
mark you still messin with those mopars/lol
please tell me you still have some vintage iron around.i say paint it body color then leave outside edge body color and middle the flat black.scoop is nice but kinda to big for me.heck you might as well throw the daytona body kit on it now.;)
how are things?you ever see john j any more?
Leave it black. I was never a big fan of those type of scoops but I must say, on that car it looks perfect.
I had a Six Pack hood on my '71 Duster and always loved the view from behind that big scoop. Nicely done, it looks great. And I vote for the satin black...keep it simple...
Not BIG enough..:001_tongue:
Paint everything but the scoop, then use body color for a graphics design on that bug catcher.
Looks cool! Go with the textured satin!
Black for sure...

Paint it both. Body color on the hood & underneath. Organisol on the scoop & 2" around it.
Keep it Black, Jack!

The car is looking awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! Could you give us a complete list of all the mods you have done?
You could drive it to Cincy next spring.:)

Honestly all black looks really slick, but I'll bet body color except for the scoop isn't too shabby either.
Signature test
Hood looks killer, leave it black :cool:
original black like they were..........
Hood pins & the hood is done.
Just my opinion, but I think leaving just the scoop black will draw too much attention to the scoop and away from the rest of the car. I like things when they look original and a black scoop alone, once again IMO, would look too much like just a bolt-on accessory. I'd vote for satin black for the whole hood - but continue it all the way to the front of the car, stopping at the grill.
I'd like to add something... Find someone who knows or uses 3D virtual design programs on cars or find a free download from the internet. Then have fun designing the hood colors to your preference.
[B]I think it looks pretty cool the way it is, reminds me of the original MOPAR 6-Pak scoops from back in the day..............[/B]
I have been dreaming of how I would customize one if I ever had the money. I would go with a flat black hood but with a matching gloss orange pin stripe running around the scoop and down sides of the hood to tie the whole thing together. Matching flat black lettering on the side of rear quarter panels and possibly even a flat black trunk with orange spoiler would look really sharp too.
That's just me though. I'm only dreaming while you have the real deal lol.
Rough idea of what I was suggesting...

I don't think you could go wrong either way.
That is a bad a$$ ride no matter what the hood looks like.
