I dont think the stripes look all that bad. I like the blackbird rear valance. Can you get some close up pics of the painter filler panel. I am not happy with mine, I sanded the bord off and polished and polished but its is just too faded from the sun.

I like everything except for the grey/charcoal ceta. Although it does not look bad, just doesn't appeal to me, but as long as you are happy with it that is all the matters! What are you gonna do with the brake calipers (like the color)? And the rest of the yellow under the body?

The stripes didn't really appeal to me in your other thread when they weren't on the car. Now that I see the final product I like them. Way to be unique. I like the thought of the ceta mod, but can't make up my mind. Maybe get some others shots of it.

I wasnt feeling the stripes too in the first set of pics. But now, I love how they flow. From a distance, you can really see the fade and the tears look like they were made by some Phoenix claws, which (now that I just thought of that ) ties in perfectly with the Firebird/Trans Am birds.

Now all thats left is the front bird!

Looks great. Even tho its not my car, Im really diggin how it came out. I guess you'll beat me into the LS1tech calander now too...bastard. lol

Looks MUCH better on the car than it did in the paint booth. It really flows as a package and is also very unique. Awesome job man.

wow, that thing looks sick now bro.

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