> [@LUKE\_L](#): > > Anyways. I hope the next go around is easier and more appealing to your eye. Personally, I think it looks badass. Who cares if you have a few runs in the clear or orange peel? No one will ever notice or comment about if after you blow their doors off 🙂 Good points but lets not go that far. :ham: ---

hood looks like a piece of the Millennium Falcon flew off and landed on your car. wheels make it look totally white trash. fix those 2 things and then it will at least look halfway decent. ---

So yeah that hood is terrible. either go with a Z28 hood or go with a cowl hood, but not both. and the wheels are disgusting. put the painted RS’s from last year or get some 85-89 IROC’s and paint the stripes black leaving the rest polished. Oh and I think painting your headlight buckets flat black would do the front some good. for some reason that color red doesn’t look right with matched buckets. ---

i think speedped may have earned a little bit of respect from the members of nyspeed, eh? looks like some of you guys have gone soft!! nice work man, glad to see if finished. if its what you like, thats all that matters. you didnt do all this work to impress nyspeed im sure. i wouldnt go as far to say that i would let you do my car, but to each his own. ---

omg @ those wheels :lol: Looks decent though. I like the idea of painting that area in front of the headlights satin black. That area being body colored looks kind of “eh.” ---
