Go with 1. 2 has way too much going on with it. Your car is sporty, aggressive and clean. Keep it that way. Also, number 1 will scrape less.

Hmmmm.. Very true on the scrapping part which i use to do all the time with Hamman. I was thinking of painting the Hartge 2 then leaving the bottom center part CF? What you think C ?

hood or roof is different. this piece is much smaller. keep it clean. the lines of your car flow well -- that's why i like number 1. 2 would be more of a distraction.
