OK this is my last photoshop i promise guys ill quit killing you with these... haha since im gonna do the nostrils too how about i carry the pinstripe around them? i noticed on most of the nicer two tone cars out there like ones done by foose or coddington, they almost always use a pinstripe to break up the contrast between the two colors.

again, my photoshop skills are lacking and this is the best i could muster. it will be rounder when its done this is just for the idea

I do like the idea you have for your though. Especially the hood paint.
I think he calls it Tribal Flames. Lol I can see where your coming from with the "Gothic Trans Am" look I think it give it some detail instead of the plain look with 2 round driving lights stuck in there

I thought about doing something like that with my superhawk hood, just decided to paint to match the car. Looked strange (in my opinion) pewter two tone just didn't look right no matter how I did it... the red and black doesn't look to bad though

i think the stripe should just keep going till it deadend's into the solid part and loose the stripe going around the bottom part and deff paint the mirrors black that way it follows the line of the sold black part ....props to the design i like it overall! hey all where do you buy this photoshop program i need a good deal??

Looks a little busy, but I like it. My attention was immediately drawn to the Hugger Orange Z28 in the background however

I personally think it might look better without the red line. Something you may want to consider, but in the end it is your car. Do what you want. Your Photoshop skills aren't that bad either.
