I'd remove the molding and all the emblems except the Trans Am. The silver is what holds your look together. Don't do it Chaman!

I like the changes, though would have to see it from the back too. It would look better in person anyways.

Definitely ditch the emblems. I think the wheels look better with the graphite but that's an opinion kind of thing. The spoiler looks sick in the photoshop but I'd have to see it in person.

I'd say leave it as is. Normally, I'd say get rid of the door molding, but T/As have that piece on the front bumper that "splits" the turn signal and lower part of the bumper. The door molding kind of continues this line. Removing the door moldings on Formulas looks better since they don't have that.

No to the wheels and spoiler.
Yes to the !moulding and !emblems, except I'd leave only the Trans Am emblems.

Your car always makes me feel funny downstairs.

Hmmm, I'd say yes on removing molding and emblems. No on the spoiler paint. Idk about the rims, those look good either way!
