Default customized Blackbird stripes... opinions?
I've always liked the look of the charcoal metallic blackbird stripes on the WS-6's so I kinda got mine customized. Hope it doesn't look too cheezy, but I kinda like em. Sorry for the dirty car and smudge on the hood.

I love the stripe, however I don't think that diamond plate compliments your engine bay very well.

I think the stripes are pretty cool and I like the 'industrial' look to the diamond plate, as I think it compliments the engine bay just fine. Good work man!

I had to piece together alot of parts to my incon kit, one of the parts was the piece that goes over the radiator shroud. Had to make it out of something and if I polish it up, it looks pretty good.
