I agree with others here, not really digging it at all![:'(] The rims are too dark and just don't work, and the lower color is way too dark to define the flames and and does not compliment the bright upper color. As stated by Orion, it just doesn't pop. The work it's self is good though.

Is that a Mustang? Or a bass boat?

take some pics not at high noon. thats whats hurting the ones you have, no light is hitting the bottom half of the car, so it all looks washed out by the darker color.

get outearlier or later in the day where you actually have some light hitting one side of the car, then take pictures of the side getting light and I think the results will be much better.

the only thing I don't really like is the painted "GT" fender badges and the circle on the trunk. not that they look out of place, but they dont match the pony in the front grill. should've painted them all, or left them all alone. they definitely should all match. but there may be some plans to change the front grill that would eliminiate the stock one.

all in all, the work looks amazing, and I actually LOVE the wheels, just think some pics in better lighting would do the car justice.

rrobello, how much does the paintjob on the car with the GT500 front end conversion cost? What wheels are on that car btw, including size of them etc... That car is just sick! Let me know how much he charged you to shave your handles and repaint the doors.

Just wow... That one paint job is just amazing and I don't like flames (again the car with the GT500 front end conversion)...
