Seconded. I may consider it if there were other red highlights (wheels, decals, ect), but that's not working for me either.

More pics please though, the rest of the car seems to look nice.

:withstupid: Not a big fan, sorry. Most everyone on here said they loved the blacked out look you had going... I said I miss owning a black car too... I hope that was plasti-dip.

Just my opinion, but a red pinstripe would look good on that car with the red badges and calipers.

Very dark like blood red accents would look amazing! The spoiler was just too bright and took all the attention away from the rest of the car.

Here's a thought. Black center caps on the wheels, then on the absolute edge of the wheels, a red pinstripe too. Not gaudy, would work with the calipers...
