Crm accent Looking for any ideas to accent the color of my car more or if it should be left as is...either some colored stripes like black or silver or something or was even thinking about tinting it with some more orange pearl or copper metallic or something... Any ideas or thoughts with this color

A 383 hoods only real function was to get some cool air under the hood to keep things cooler and to just make things a lil diff and more aggressive looking
i have a 3 inch ss hood and i love it, i got mine because of the extra clearance i will soon need , but car looks good man ,where did you get the hood grill?honest i would keep it how it is , if you wanted to add things i would go for a cme, maybe some 383 emblems on the sides of the hood, and maybe switch up the wheels to something polished.it could be how the car is sitting in the pics but i would maybe do the heater hose mod to bring the rear down a bit. good looking car though

Thanks guys...I has polishes rims prior to these and just wanted a change although I do like the looks of the newer zl1s...the car has drag launch springs in it and I took my speaker system out to for some army gear in the back so with my street tires it is sitting a lil higher...I actually want to put some adjustable perches in it so I van adjust the height more foru diff wheels....what I'm really interested in is something to make this color pop a lil more...when the right light hits it and the orange tint comes out it looks incredible and I'd love that look all the time so wasn't sure if it was possible to ad a pearl tint to a clearcoat or some more metal flake or something
If your gonna add pearl I'd use copper pearl, but spray a few test panels to see what ya like. I did this on my old truck and it worked out great. Another thing is have the pearl sprayed as a mid coat over the base and under the clear, if you just put it in the clear it will be hard to keep even looking and a run will leave a heavy pearl line.

yeah i tried a few times running without it...never got pulled over but would always have the damn fatass meter maids writing me tickets when it was parked in public...on a plus side though in nyc it makes for a good bumper guard up front for all the people that think they have to judge when they're in a parking spot by when they see the car behind them move
