Whatchathink?

After replacing the factory grill with the black Carriage Works piece, I thought the grill surround and a piece of the hood would look good in black also. Here's the almost-finished product. I say "almost" because I'm going to add a subtle pinstripe (silver?) or two just to ease the somewhat harsh transition from red to black.

I like it also. It looks good I think. I'd have to see it with the pinstripe to though, I am not sure silver is the best choice, but I would have to see it. Do you mean like Silver Racing Stripes?

No racing stripes, just a narrow pinstripe, 1/8 inch maybe. Candidly, I'm not good with pinstripe design and colors. If anyone has any suggestions.....

I like it

I think silver would be a nice color to break up the red/black too.

Don't mind at all. The tires are 275/55 x 20. It's a 2" drop in front with 4" out back. I considered (briefly) a 4"/6" drop, but figured the ride would be way too harsh. It would have looked good, though.

Looks pretty sweet. Kinda reminds me of a charger or a magnum for some weird reason. Maybe a single red pinstripe? i'm no designer thou.
