It looks nice, but the color balance is a little off imo, needs less black, and more pewter.

i think the black mirrors really makes it look flush, i like it.

only suggestion would be flip the black and pewter on the front license plate fill-in so that the bird is black

Front plate needs to be pewter with the black bird, take the black off the reverse lights. Other than that it looks sick! Those wheels look great! I'm glad you didn't paint the headlight covers black to!

I like it minus the front plate and hood stripes. Having a pewter bird myself I'm glad you posted this because I was debating plast-dipping my sail panel. I think it looks damn good bro!

Keep The stripes, Loose the front plate. put it back to pewter. Paint the firebird inside the front plate black. Loose the LSX performance sticker in your front windshield. Definitely some DD wheels and your set. =]

Just about perfect, other than the black plate.. Reverse it and you're gold.
