I had a buddy of mine spray my bumper for me, I chose gloss black for a touch of originality, I think it turned out pretty nice. Oppinions?

Thats kinda what I was going for, it's hard to be completely original with these cars nowadays, but I think they look killer with the bumper accent so I just had to do it too!

Looks killer, it adds a nice touch to the car. Are you going to do the frond plate bird in black to kind of balance it? Not needed but just wondering

I've been considering it, as well as a set of Blackbird stripes, that wouldnt be overkill would it?

^^They paint the lower valance similar to the way a CETA is painted. If you ever noticed the CETA has a charcoal lower valance, not a yellow (54U) body color.

The gloss black looks awesome against the silver.

Thanks Bandit for clearing that up, after reading my titile I see how it could've been a little confusing. And thanks everyone for the compliments!

yeah only the yellow ones came with the painted valence. He is showing how he painted his valence to look like the CETA

Exactly, my car is in no way, shape, or form a Collectors Edition Trans Am. Just a Pewter '02 WS6 which I chose to paint the bumper to mimic the CETA car.

Looks great, but I would lose the pin stripe. Just my opinion. Either way nice work.

i think the thinks the top ridge of the bevel looks like a pinstripe b/c of its shadow
