Default some new pics

Well my car is down due to a blown rear end, and waiting in the garage for money to get a psr custom built 9' rear end. Since i can't waste my money on gas, i've decided to do a few appearance mods to her. So far i have powdercoated my back rims black (c5 zo6's) and the front are in the shop as i write getting done also. I recently did my ceta mod together with getting my spoiler painted black which matches with my hood (see avatar). i will be getting the carbon fiber ws6 style hood in a few weeks also. i plan on bring the car to a shop to get my side view mirrors and my sail panels painted black as well. I am kind of hoping for a silvern black color scheme with it. The last picture is my car with the weld racing pro stars 15x10 with 26in mickey thompson et drag's. Tell me what you think!!

I like the idea, but I think the spoiler would look better with just the top half painted blakck and the rest silver. From the back it looks kind of choppy IMO. You could tie that in by painting the top of the scoops black or something, as opposed to the whole hood. That might make it look more custom as opposed to pieced together. Good luck..keep at it.
