Well now, I'm usually not too wild about red cars, or stripes or two-tone paint or blacked out things ..... but, put all together, your car looks down right nice .....

Now, about them tail pipe tips .....

I can appreciate the work and detail you put into the car but to me to stripe on the hood doesn't go with the 2 tone paint but it's your car and if you're happy with it, that's all that matters!

The tail lights and side marker lights stand out against the red too much for me as well. Clear or lightly smoked side markers and red tails would look much cleaner IMO.

Look forward to seeing new pics once you drop it

I liked everything except the stripes too. I think this design will make it look "one piece".

Wow, that lets a lot more light through than I would expect!
