      thanks for the comments guys! not to worry, the CB antenna is remote. i routed it so it can come on and off to prevent the rust issue.

          I see you went for stainless rocker trim with stainless granny trim. Thats how my car is going to be (with the black stripe and all) and it should look alright. It sure does on your car.

                needs some meaner looking fogs though. My opinion though. Looks stellar though. So when you entering that in a car show and getting your first trophy?

                    That's the only change I'd make...the lights look kinda awkard hanging from the bumper.

                    But other than that, one helluva car...

                      Man you nailed it on the color choice. Wanna know a neat photography trick? Wet the pavement around your car and it will add a lot of depth and neat reflections in your paint.

                            x2. They're the only part of the car that I don't LOVE. I'd pitch those fuckers... it's like a really hot chick with ugly glasses. But that's my opinion- do what you want, since you've already done SO MUCH right with this car!
