My Hood and Grill Design

No photoshop, just paint. So please excuse the roughness. It'll give you the look I'm going to have. But you'll need to use your imagination for the Belltech 2" Front 4" Rear Drop kit (ordered last night).

EDIT: BTW: Thinking of keeping the Grill Shell Red. Your Opinion? And the the mostly the TOP surface of the hood matte black, not the full hood.

And then I'm still in the search for the correct set of red fender flares. Know where I can immediately buy a set? PM me.

Posted the same pics untouched, for you photoshop guru's to play with. Was wondering how '70 GTO Judge stripes might look? I think they'd "fit" the fender bulges really well. And most other stripes have been done already.
<don't everyone go stealing this idea... at least not right away >

Also ordered the Harland Sharpe 1.7 roller rockers. The 3.9L could use some more HP... but is there ever enough And looking for th V-8 Throttle Body and cable, just in case someone has a good working spare...PM me.

Thoughts, ideas, suggestions?

Thanks!
Plymouth Express
Mike

A little too "thick" looking for me

It looks great with the full body kit, but not for me. It has too much "Aftermarket" look to it. The center rib and the lower outside corners are too thick looking. I'm trying to look "stock"... sort of.

Almost but, no thanks.

Copying is the sincerest form of flattery... so they say. No I wouldn't steal your idea. I've bounced around a couple times on what grill insert to use...
It'll be a surprise when its done.
