looks really good, i love the way the manta stripes look. by far my favorite look for the SS hood. all the black looks really great on the white car. my only suggestion is to do the whistler mod.

Looks good. Im not a fan of black mirrors but thats just me. I think the facotry headlights go with the theme of the Fikse wheels and clear corners. What emblem are you going to put on the front grille?

Looks amazing!

Only suggestions would be put an old-school SS logo on the grille, and maybe whistler.

BUT perhaps you're trying to rock out the debadged look?

The grille is the only thing that really gets me. If there were no place for the badge and it was a straight bar across the front I think it would look fine. But with the place specificly for an emblem I think som type of flat black emblem would make all the difference.

looks bad ***. Like you said key hole, mirrors need to be white. Maybe a white SS emblem in the front to take up the emblem spot?? although Im all about debadged cars but the grill has a spot for it so?? oh and clear rear markers

im going to do all the above you said,if i put an emblem in front its gonna be red or light silver.red cause the manta has a thin red stripe seperating the white and black its hard to see in the pics though or silver to match the fikse.the rear markers im not sure on color yet maybe clear but im leaning to solid white since if I dont like them than I can buy the clear ones.I will get pics of the rear later today I just had to go somewhere and had to stop taking pics
