Finally, Pic's

Finally got around to taking pics of my painted on stripes. I think the painter dude did a great job, 9 coats of clear, feels like glass. Let me know what you think, what should I do next?

Looks great!

What are the dimensions of your stripes? They look perfect. Next, you should get yourself the 1:18 diecast replica of the NAIAS show car. Push it around on the floor like you stole it!

That car looks great! Other than tint don't do anything else to the exterior. Maybe lower it and new exhaust.

That is an outstanding looking car. Mine would be the same if it were gray. Your stripes are the right color. All you need now is to paint the rear of the ugly mufflers with B_B_Q grill paint so no one sees them. I did that. You will be glad you did too. You get four stars from me and a big SMILE!

Yea, I cannot decide on side scoops either. It is even harder now that you can order them painted to match.

I am really thinking of pulling the trigger on them.

Still going to leave the upper quarter windows open for now.

Good Job Donna, I agree lower that pony and get rid of the optional 4x4 look.

Again really good job.
