your car is sick, period. maybe get some stuff inside painted, like the dash, center console, what not.
for the money you'd be dropping on a new paint job, i'd just pick up a nice set of brakes to fill in those 20s.
or just get the shorty antenna.

The supersnake stripe would look really good. You could go with ghost flames but I would go with like the american flag or like the ghost tribar running pony in the middle of the good. Or some ghost ponies running down the side of your car after the GT500. There was a thread the other day with a guy who had a paint job on the underside of his hood. Just some things to think about.

I don't know about ghost flames, I feel like they can look out of place most of the time, especially on a car like this. The Super Snake stripe would look cool. You could go with a classic color combo like the Shelby Blue & White or something totally out there like Lambo Pearl Orange or BMW Laguna Seca Blue

I have to get a new paint job. My old body shop really screwed it up bad. Peeling/chipping paint every where. I had to get a Lawyer and threaten the **** out of him. Estimate was over $8500. With that said if I want to change or add something this is the time to do it. Im deff. gettin the radiator cover painted the same color as the car with stripes. Shorty antenna, hood gas strut lifters, Underside of the hood is getting stripes as well, side scoops, window louvers are getiing molded. This is my plan so far. Who knows it might change again
