Final touches for the year are finished

This is the stripe that separates the hyper black from the flat black.







And here is my arm rest

the holes make it look unfinished though but that's the only thing that doesn't please me

flat black looks so cheap and unfinished in my opinion.
i dont think that color of the pinstrip works well at all either...

but its your car and either way its well done so props for that.

fenders, antenna, and mirrors need to all be changed/shaved.

Otherwise the overall paint scheme isnt bad.

flat black, in most cases does look unfinished/cheap to me.
the antenna has CRAPPY body work around that. I can see very clearly how horrid that work is from that pic.
the fenders... you just drilled out a couple holes and said "yeah that looks awesome"?!?


On the other hand....you have other fingers.

Then you're monitor must be off because the body work is actually pretty good around the antenna. The only thing that i see could look bad is there is a small portion that isn't rounded the right way. And no i didn't just drill holes. I drilled holes, took some exhaust tubing and oval cut it, then welded it to the back and body worked the @!#$ out of it.

Also if you really are going to just come on my pic thread and hate, don't waste you're time and leave.
