let's see, couple of suggestions:
1) i wouldn't put the arrowhead that you have on

3) see if you can polish the taillights up a bit so that they are closer to the black middle piece
4) stainless steel hood and side vents maybe?

overall, lookin' good! death to the black and yellow
All 4 I think would add alot to the looks of your car.

I think the whole thing turned out great though. I like the stripes very unique.

Would like to see some better shots of the bumper. Is it color-matched to the darkest color on the front of the stripe or just a shade of gray?

Thanks RollTideTA, yes it is color matched to the darkest part of the stripe...This is currently the only other pic I have of it(It decided to snow today, so in the garage it stays)

Thanks Silver..
Looks like the arrowhead wont work there, contours of the body wont allow it.
calipers and taillights are next on the list, and I'm working on a small "custom" idea for the hood inserts, and will be using sidevents from Dragonz28.

Im kind of undecided on what to think of the painted spoiler. I would probably need to see it in person to give an accruate opinion. Definetly uinque though, overall looks good.

Gonna have to go against the crowd on the stripes. I like the color but, not the ripped look.

I see you are stepping away from the yellow/black theme. Looks great! The yellow was flashy, but the grey is classy. That gray metalflake on the stripes looks killer close up. I'm liking the "ripped" hood stripes better than the ones on the spoiler for some reason. Did you get that custom done, or does somebody sell them like that?

No one makes them, I had them painted on. Custom.

After seeing that, I like the CETA bumper too! I think its cool that it is an exact match to the front of the stripes.
