Hood Scoop

Hello everyone I am thinking of putting on a chrome hood scoop on my car and I am having conflicting opinions now due to the fact I came across this black notch hood scoop, http://www.outmotoring.com/notch-style-hood-scoop.html , I'd like to know what do you think would look better on a white silver/black top MCS. Also I do have the black trim for the front grille on.

-Rob

I've decided to go with the chrome hood scoop w/scoop shield to protect it from melting and with the black grille trim and buying the black mesh scuttles(JCW). I think that will look mighty hot for my car and with the tints!
