very nice car... it looks like you take good care of it!

if i were to make one suggestion it would be to either take off the stripes on the hood, or add them to the roof and the decklid/spoiler

thanks man, i came up with the design for the stripes just messin around tryin to be chip foose one day. haha my friend works at a local body shop as a painter so he sprayed them for me. i belive the paint is a mercedes paint code, i think its called 'mercedes silver'. the color really depends on the lighting, at night it can look dark bule, gray, or black. alot of people that dont know much about fbodys mistake my car for a 35th annaversary edd cuz they thought the stripes were blue. but in the sun it looks like a real deep silver and if you catch it at the right angle it can look like a sandy almost pewter color. ive still got some work to do to it, i was planning on filling in the pontiac lettering on the rear bumper and painting the bottom part like alot of other people do. but thanks for the comments guys!

actually ive thought about that several times, i even taped them off like that to see what it would look like before we painted anything. I figured if i carry the stripes over the roof and decklid/spoiler then the car would have stripes goin everywhere and look like too much is goin on. so i made the stripes on the hood more isolated to just the hood by rounding off the corners, instead of running them off the front and rear of the hood so you wouldnt think they'd keep flowing over the rest of the car. i planned on filling in the pontiac lettering on the rear bumper and painting the bottom part of the bumper also, i think that will help round it out a little more. but thanks for the comments and it wasnt a bad sugestion!
