Opinions on my car

I wanted to get some opinions on two things. I just got my ASCD big block on my 86 iroc and I wanted to know what people on here think I should do, cut out the front for a screen or leave it the way it is. I like it the way it is but I have been told by a few people that it'd look better cut out with a screen. The other thing is what color should I paint the car? I'm going with either black or a grey that someone had painted their trans am around here that just looked bad a**. I'm pretty sure I'm going to go with leaving the hood uncut and painting it black, but I just wanted to hear some opinions.

Here's a pic of the car in its current state:

I think it would look pretty cool cut out, but there would have to be no chance in hell that i could screw it up before i started hacking away at it. And i think you should paint it black, that way itll match the bird.

I think it would look sweet cut out and with a screen. Gun metal gray would look cool but I would go with black also
