Default new pics, whatcha think..

Thought I would post up some new pics, tell me what you think, any suggestions for it. I was thinking clear corners, maybe some stainless steel insert out back. I plan on getting some anthracite TTM's once they come off backorder.

thanks for the compliments everyone.

My antenna is broken, so it won't retract all the way, gonna order up a replacement one. I still am undecided what color to paint my calipers, but leaning towards red, but black and silver are my other choices.

I say instead of getting anthracite TTM's get some black ones to match the theme you are going with and paint your calipers silver.....

after seeing some pictures of a silver GMMG Blackbird, I am thinking about changing my theme, and getting those anthracite TTM's, and changing my blackbird stripes to charcoal...

stainless inserts would be overkill on a silver car.
