    I personally liked the rocker decal and would have dropped the door badge. When I first saw this car I was immediately drawn to the rocker panel decal and have been wanting to get some like that for my car.

    Now that I have mine all apart though, I think Im going to do that, but I think I'll have them air brushed on. Maybe not quite that large though. I think I'll also have my checkered flag vinyls painted on as well if I can swing the funds for it.

    I liked the rocker decal as well, even though I kinda hate stickers...and all. It worked for some reaison on your car.

    I too did red wire loom once, and it was just too busy for me to keep going, so I removed it all and went back to black. Sooooooooo glad I did too.

    Nice looking GP! I agree with the others, I would have removed the door badge and kept the rocker vinyl.

    I also liked the red in the engine bay. If you had a polished/painted blower I could see it, but now it looks stock. Before my eye was drawn to the red and how clean it was, now I pick up on the cast parts and any discoloring. Still a very nice GP though!

    Ha Ha I had to laugh about the wire loom. I see I wasnt the only one who went too far with that at one time.
    Nice clean look now I give 2 thumbs up!
