Love the color; hate the car. Ugly hood, worst wheels ever on a 4th Gen (Cept for those rare tri-spoked Firebirds). Grille doesn't match car's concept; would if it were black w/o bowtie. Go grille-less, stock, or SLP bowtie. The car would look great with a stock, Sunco, or SS hood and with black Zr1's or any drag wheels.

Just taking off the grille and putting the stock hood back on would make a big difference.

As it is now:

Slam it on its face, get some TT2s and Paint the centers to match the car, but leave the polished lip, tint it out and you will be rollin'

right now it just looks primered, and it doesn't look like you have a theme goin.

Not feeling it. I also don't like how the headlights, grill and rear bumper lights stand out. Maybe if it was all blacked out.

Its a nice start! But as soon as possible I think you should get that all blacked out... I think the rims should be the same color as the car, not gloss black, they will stand out way too much if so.. Its really a nice start though..

The paint looks really nice and I LOVE that hood. Sounds like your plans will finish it off nicely.

Do you know what paint it was sprayed with?

The car has potential. I like the hood, keep it. As mentioned a drop and new wheels will make the car. I say stick with a polished wheel. If you want to keep the bowtie up front I recommend painting the blue section black or remove it. The clear corners contrast too much, I would like to see those either smoked or the stock red/orange lights back on it. For the noise badge get a stainless steel one, it looks unfinished with no badge.

Refer to the movie death proof

I was looking for more along the lines of the brand of paint and the amount of flattening agent in the clear if applicable.
