Color scheme ?
I was reading another thread about a MY car with black and red stripes,and one of the members on this forum said that it looked like a Mcdonalds car,and thought is that what people see when they look at my car,so i took some new shots today,been meaning to do it anyway since i lowered it,to see what the very tough crowd on here thinks,i love it cause it is different,and have not seen anything close to it in my area.so you will not hurt my feelings,do you see a clown car?

I think it looks great, but I would definitely 86 the badges on the doors... if it were mine. All my cars get a de-badging as soon as I get them home, so I'm simply not a fan of any logos whatsoever. But if one wants them I think they show better in the factory correct placements. (jmo)

Looks good, but I'd lose the C5 flags on the doors too. I don't de-badge, but I tell them (dealership), if they pay tax, title, license, and first year insurance on the vehicle, they can leave their dealership name on it, usually when I pick it up, their name is off.

Looks good to me! And I'm not a fan of anything yellow

Just fix your passenger side pinstriping over the side cove and it's all good.
