I think it would depend on the truck... it doesn't suit that one pictured though.

I don't like how it doesn't go down the whole hood.

It is different, everyone else does the full length and covers the center groove.

I like it but I would add another ¼” stripe around the outside.

Matt-black looks ok too !

Front of it doesn't seem to match the contour of the grill.

A few months ago I dented my hood and need repaint. I was just about to do the same on my truck.

I like it

Taken from the Ebay Auction
1997-11 FORD RANGER DUAL HOOD STRIPE KIT
Includes: 2 Hood Stripes.
These stripe designed to work with specific hood style as shown in photos. (FLAT STYLE) (GROOVE STYLE)
Need i remind you all what a Powerdome looks like? It has a "v" style groove in the middle.
That white truck doesn't have a Powerdome, Not if that front end is stock.

Like I mentioned, look at the driver side where the raised part should be. You can't see it because of the overexposure. It is a power dome hood as that grill is 06+.
