Default Future plans

Well I need options on my future plans for my car. I'm tring to make a show type car (still want it to be fast), but right now i'm tring to decide on how I want the car to look (Already picked out all performance stuff).

The car is lt pewter.
- Billet grille (Already done)
- 18x9 boyd coddington smoothie's all around
- Black & pewter interior (80% done)
- Black camaro tail pannel (currently being painted)
- Lower the car
- 69 Z28 badges
- Keep the stock hood and add these black racing stripes:

So what do you think? Good enough to make a very nice looking extrior? I'm tring to go for a really nice looking car, yet keep the Z28 look (ie: not adding SS hood or spolier). Think I'll do good in shows once i'm done with the listed above?

Thanks! <img border="0" alt="[Camaro]" title="" src="graemlins/camaro.gif" />

Looks like you have a very good plan there! Some very nice choices on the appearance items, just rememebr while you are working on these mods take consideration on the small appearance details. For example, before insalling the billet grille paint the area semi gloss black, the grille looks kinda silly with the body color glaring through. And while it is apart clean it! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> just remember, it never ends!

No more opinions? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Pretty much all the stuff I mentioned I am going to do... the only thing is I'm ify on the black racing stripes. I like them, but am tring to think if the car really needs them?

I was talking to Jay from 3rdgendecals and he recomended this kit for my car: http://www.3rdgendecals.com/RickM.htm

Do you think these will look really good? In those pics I think they put the stripes to far apart... if I bought that kit I would move them a bit closer together.

Oh I 1st hand know it never ends! I remember last week saying "Dang I gotta slow down on all this modding"... yea that lasted about 1 day, lol. I'm also really good at paying attention to the very small stuff... which is sometimes bad because I always notice little things that I want to change <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> .

I'm not too sure on those. It looks like a conglomeration of many stripe designs merged together.
