Okay.

Now then.

I'd say do what you want.

Personally, I think it is a terrible idea, because,

1) I think the hoods and tape look fine together. Actually, I like it a lot.

2) Campy hoods are campy hoods are campy hoods are campy hoods are expensive and hard to get. It's not worth risking breaking it. It'd be a little like getting a D'angelico guitar and having your local guitar shop tweak the neck. (I'd say truss rod, but those weren't invented yet, I think).

3) If you do it, send me the hoods. Really. We could work something out. If you see what I mean.

4) Me, I'd leave it be.

Just my unsolicited opinion, buddy.

2) I found this magic "2" down here after I finished typing, so why not post one more no. 2 reason- Panthers007 is right. EXPENSIVE.
