Quite Mustang like - with the door sticker - Might just go with Scion without the .ca
Love the rims though. I'll admit orange isn't my color. Is it orange pearl though? |

Not my cup of tea and now it looks like a poorman's GT3 RS.

I think a EDM/JDM headlight or black housed headlight would complete the look.
But regardless, it looks pretty nice with the white on orange |

I like the overall idea and colors. My suggestion would be to see if you can find a vinyl that matches the wheels a little better and maybe add a small section of your vinyl stripe in front of the front wheel almost to the foglight housing. Otherwise, nice work. I was also considering using one of the Porsche designs as inspriation.

Ya the vinyl match was really hard. The wheel has some 'pearl' in it so from various angles and shadowing and lighting, the vinyl will match, and then sometimes it doesn't. I also like your idea about adding small section! Thanks!
