I like what you have done to the rear of the car, but IMO the hood is moe than I would put on my car. But it is your car and if you like it, then that is all that should matter. I have seen others with this same hood (or something similar) so you are not the only one with it on the car. Some nice stripes would look good on the hood.

I don't think I have ever posted a negative comment about anything posted here in almost 3 years, but you asked and I have to say without anything personal that, that is hideous (IMO) There is sooooo much useless, non-functional stuff going on forward of the windshield it takes away from the beautiful C-5 lines completely. In addition the panel fit near the headlights is ......not so good. AGAIN only my opinion but its your car and if you love it, Life is Good.

Well I do not like it, but I am a stock looks kind of guy.
But obviously you do like this sort of thing so have at it. It is your vette. To go along with the theme you need some C5R headlights.

Rear and sides of the car looks nice. 
Hood is another thing altogether! Way too much going on there!!
If you are going to keep that hood, I agree that you should use the C5R Headlights and add some Black color to the Hood via stipes or lettering!!
Good Luck!

i honestly dont like the hod to be honest, if you put in all that work, shave the fenders down so the stock hood fits on and put the stock front plate cover on and make sure you put on some huge wheels to match, other than the hood it looks great

I will reply to your question, but please do not get mad. I do not like it at all. The natural lines do not flow. It looks to ricy or maybe to redneck, one or the other. Sorry, but you asked. I do like the yellow, even though I have a torch red one.

My parents always told me that if I didn't have anything good to say about something....then essentially keep my trap shut. If you like it thats all that matters...
