Paint the hood to match the rest of the truck. Since you asked for opinions.

Years ago vehicles came out with a flat black hoods that wasn't bad. Try that
I think you really only have two options.
1. Paint the hood to match the truck (granite crystal metallic). This will be the cheapest/easiest thing to do.
2. Have a wrap company apply a black wrap to the upper parts of the truck and the grill surrounds to create this look. I don’t think the dark gray and black will look as good as silver and black, but who knows. But, the hood would have to be wrapped as well because the black wrap will not match the black paint on the hood close enough to not look off.
In the end, nobody’s opinion should matter. It’s your truck, do what YOU want.
