Well, whadoyathink?
Got the lower facia blackout from Corvette Enhancements and "static-cling" blackouts for the taillites from MAD.
Over the taillites are a set of "louvers" with chrome strips to contrast against the blackouts.
So, whadoyathink?......too much, just right, or not enough?
Next week I'm gonna ditch the static-clings and put some limo tint, window tint on them. Will look just as good as what the "pro's" are offering at a fraction of the cost.

Yup! That I did.
Guess tomorrow, I'll pull the louvers off and take another pic and see what the response is, then.

You asked!!!!
You have two different types of horizontal louvers...
and two different colors...
chrome and red,
You have a lower facia which is black, together with the blackouts, they look great, but you also have chrome accents in the Corvette letters, and the tail light louvers.. looks way too busy, and that you cant make up your mind about an accent color...
the car is red...
all that chrome and red and black is just too much...
keep is simple... one subtle color for your accent pieces, makes it classic...

I am usually not a big fan of louvers.
=JMO=
However, I like from below "Corvette" down.
Perhaps if the "Corvette" was black and the louvers on the tail lights were red (to match the plate louvers) it might flow better.
