What Colour Bonnet - Poll

Over the past few weeks I have been wondering whether to change the bonnet colour to match the colour of the car, Im still not 100% sure so I think a poll could decide whether I do change it . What do you all think

The car currently:

The front arches will stay black if this helps.

hmm, i was thinking plain blue, but managed to click blue/black and submit it.

i think, you'll struggle to find the point where the black scoop should start, so stick with blue, and leave black for the wings

Leave it black and put two blue stripes across the top of the bonnet....

Would look smart like that IMHO

unless maybe you have a blue bonnet, black scoop, then fade the black to blue up to the windscreen?

Deffo blue bonnet. There's too many Corsas around with black carbon-wannabe bonnets (you must have been past the one around the corner from me)
