Nice work to do in MS Paint.
But I don't like the scheme, its on the verge of me liking it but its just not there.
Maye cut out the black on the rear views, sail panel, spoiler headlights and hood and leave the front and rear fenders and door as a single stripe.
Also the light accents I don't like, it just looks like too much.

I would like your 1st layout if the side moldings were black. It just needed a little more black down low
