    I agree with no contrast with the lower bumper/facias. The paint does look amazing. If it were mine id maybe do a red pinstripe around the facias, some red gpo grills would look sick. black housed retros, and a light smoke on the tails. Also please keep your tires shined 24/7 with the shiniest of shiny shine you can find lol

    Flashy colors like red are too much. Grays and silvers are a bit contrasting but not obnoxious.

    That was the interior and the engine bay.

    I'm talking EXTERIOR.

    Bumpers should be gray/silver and whatever other color you went with.

    Nope. Just the grill inserts...

    If you do put something on the sides of the hood-scoops, make it something unique

    no such thing as a "ram air" on a FWD car, it just a gimmick

    if the OP likes it all black then thats what it should be, why should he build a car based off strangers opinion on an internet forum?

    no matter how you design it, its still a grand prix, i mean come on lol, lets be real here

    Get a nice decal made up saying something like "Gen V" or similar. So it'll leave 90% of people confused, but those that get it will think it's awesome.

    I was afraid when I saw "new grillz" in the title, but I'm satisfied, considering I also have the SS black chrome. Chrome or brushed grilles are honestly just obnoxious and stand out to much.
