I think that's a nice addition. Good job!

I used a large sheet of sticker vinyl to cover the rockers on my Tacoma to prevent rock chips, and it worked excellent. Several years later, I did the same thing on the hood of my Sprinter, but by then you could buy a 5x5' piece.
Your sticker will protect the paint on that part of the hood, but I don't think you're likely to get chips there (but I did, on my first 100 miles!). I'm going to put vinyl on the leading edge of my hood for rock chips. The plastic bumper seems to allow enough deflection to reduce paint damage.

I bought these from rocky mountain graphics off Esty. Pretty easy to install. Brett is a great guy to do business with.

I have a couple of air bubbles I will pop after 24 hours. What do y’all think?
That looks like it could be a factory graphic treatment.

I like it, adds a little contrast.

Sorry, seems I'm in the minority opinion here. While I like the idea of adding some contrast to the white, I don't think what you have in mind is a good look. Seems to diminish the nice broad lines of the hood. Maybe some stripes along the edges of the hood bump? Something like this?
