Looking to repaint, need input...
Hey Guys,
First off, Happy Holidays to everyone!!
I'm getting close to painting my car again. I really do like the color, but am considering some minor changes...
1) Lose the Kompressor badges, maybe some tasteful custom ones.
2) Possible minor color/design change.
3) Possible rear spoiler change, looking for suggestions on this one.
4) Possible vented hood change, looking for suggestions as well.
Thanks in advance for your input, and anyone with good photo shop skills and a little time to donate to the cause, please step in!!
Thanks in advance to the inevitable joker that will step in as well...
Here's a few pics in the current form, the paint still looks pretty good from 12 ft, but needs some work once you get close...
Again, thank you very much in advance!!

Well personally I think she is a keeper! Now about your Corvette, looks like you like your personal touches...and they are just that, personal. Use your imagination and I am sure you will do well judging by what you have done to your ride currently. Keep us posted as I really like pics of some custom touches. Merry Christmas, Rob

I'm sure I can't help much, cause I'm more into the traditional. However, here goes. Not likin the spoiler too much. Switch it out for one of the little flip up type. I like the base color, but not the way you've painted the coves. I'm thinking that if you accented the inside of the coves in silver it would look better. I like your current hood.
