Nice paint job! I'm not a fan of the wheels though. Sick looking car overall.

Do the front fenders have a different shade than the front bumper? The bumper looks different in all photos.

The black sail panel looks good with that paint scheme. CETA is a must.

Nice paint.

That's what makes the world go around.. I am sorta borderline on it myself. Gonna try it for awhile, if I decide I don't like it, will just have the painter fill the middle pewter and be back to blackbird stripes... No harm, no foul..

edit: looking at the black in person vs pics is like night and day... It really does look great in person... But it's a test, we'll see...

Nice paint.

.
Deffinately looks like different shades, im sure the fenders and facia were painted seperately, with lighter colors like that pewter, they need to be painted together. other than that the paint job looks nice.

my front bumper has always looked a different shade than the rest of my car.. Even in old pics... And that is actually getting repainted(front bumper) next week, so will see if he can get it to match better..

Looks great, some black on the wheels would go a long way for it, but its your car and its sweet the way it is.

Over all, I think it looks great! My only thought if it was my car would be, I would have the black come down around the inlets on the bumper cover instead of stopping on the hood, but I like how the center is filled in.

Edit: and tuck up those exhaust tips!!!
