I'd go with "A" too. I think "B" would look better it was flipped. I agree with the nice car posts too. Really sharp.
I think that it was a '33 Chevy that had a graduated louver pattern... I'll take a picture of the hood sides that I have sitting in my garage later and post it. Maybe dig up a set and graft them into your hood..
Update...Well Vaughn punched me! And one with no windshield and one with a hood. A hood is my next project.
