Default Few pics of the Z, finally painted the hood!

Just wanted to post a couple pictures of my Z28 after finally getting the Sunoco hood painted (was letting the gel coat cure for a year and a half ), paid $550 for the paint which included the underside and wet-sanding. Overall I am happy with the quality of the work done on it. The one thing I am debating on though is whether or not I should keep my Corsa clones or go with no tips for awhile. Kind of getting bored with the clones already. I also got rid of my red Z28 and CAMARO insert decals and was thinking about tinting the taillights all red (or keeping the reverse section white) Does anybody else have any appearance suggestions? Pictures taken with the new Droid Incredible if anyone is interested.

Ya know what would be even cooler? If the Sunoco hood had a matching 'flip up' like the SS spoiler.
That first photo is better, IMO. But the cars in the background aren't good.
Move it somewhere without the rear distractions & get another good side profile shot!

But don't let my comments mess with ya, ..., It looks good!

Car looks great, love the sunoco hood. The 18 zo6 wheels set your car off very nice.

For tail lights, get exports, paint them all read except for the back lights... for the tips... it's a toss up for me. Corsa clones/ !tips or CME. Your car is ****. Good job on make it K.I.S.S. and making it look 10.

VHT Tails and sidemarkers.....another idea is powedercoating the corsa clones black if you are tying to go with an all black theme that is. Personally i like camaros better without tips unless it is a CME
