It's an interesting paint job to say the least. But I think that is more deserving of something that works better with custom paint, like a 32 3 window coupe or any other style based hotord.

On other words; Good intentions + custom paint + wrong car = No.

Well my first reaction was this is a bad 70s acid flashback, but what really needs to go are the orange flames. Minus the flames, there is nothing wrong with a green to blue fade like he has going on. Now someone mentioned that he has that bass boat glitter effect going on with the paint, I didn't pick up on that but don't want to revisit the pics. There are a hella lot worse paint schemes floating around the F-body community, but this one, this I attribute to one thing, weed. This dude smoked WAY too much weed when he decided orange and blue and green and whatever the hell else color we can toss in there would look cool.

its one thing to spend a ton of money on a custom show paint job, but at least spend a few hundred on better wheels. even a set of chrome stock wheels would be better, especially compared to the rset
