I think that looks pretty cool... not sure about the spider though. Get some clears up front (or even black em out) and if you do get the halos I think the black version would look good.

I think it looks nice. Clear corners for sure. About clear corners, they are usually used to make the colors used on the car blend better. Without them, some cars would look like crap.

If you are going to do over-the-top graphics, they had better be done right. Your car illustrates this point perfectly. If those weren't so well done, it would look tacky. Yours looks great!

Same mentality when people state that push button starts are rice when $250,000 Ferrari's come with them.

I have to say, the graphics are killer, definitely different, noticeable, but not over done (whole car, "Web" wheels, etc)

I would go with clear corners with black-outs, to blend in best.

Personally (and I'm different that most everybody) I would look into a different wheel (something with a more open center as opposed to the nearly solid wheels on there now) I just think it would make it look a lot cleaner, but the car does look great as it sits!

Anyone else here think thats alittle too much?? Maybe im weird but i like the "cleaner" look of the F-bodies..Dont get me wrong its not bad..id say its just a big head turner, but if thats what your going for then i give ya props! But for my taste the farthest id go if ghost flames..but its very unique
