A friend of mine did this overlay pic for me. I think it turned out pretty cool!

It would be cool if you had a good airbrush artist that could spray it OR make a wrap from the photo to put on a spare hood.

I would call it impressive but I think 'it's just down right cool' better describes it. It takes a pretty good engine to run the numbers you've posted. A smoked plexiglass hood would be a great addition. Great looking car.
