no no no....stick with the black theme, but to each his own. If you like it, that's all that matters.

Not feeling the red hood insert or whistlers. They stand out too much. I think it would look better black, or if you wanted your hood insert to stick out, you could use a chrome or brushed aluminum insert. The red just clashes too much IMHO.

I'm gonna have to agree with everyone else here...that looks like ****. You should have left it stock. It reminds me of the times I've seen a riced out car that looked like a kid made a body kit out of Bondo (everything is all lumpy and wavy) and sprayed it with a can of Krylon paint that didn't quite match the color of the rest of the car. In my mind, what you did is THAT bad.

I dont like the choice of color or the fact that you didn't do the FULL whistler mod...although I like the fact that you are trying to do something different

paint that hood scoop insert black, it looks tacky as hell IMO

I wonder how it would look on a red Camaro though. Kinda like the C6 Corvettes.

That's what I'm thinking. Match the color with the car. The red just looks out of place on a black car.

Hey man it's different so good for you. If you like it keep it. It wouldn't have been my personal choice but to each their own.
