Doesn't look too bad, but I can't really tell from the pics. Not really my taste, but it is your C6 so you can do whatever you like.

Really hard to give you an honest opinion as the pictures I am sure do not do it justice.

These pics make your finish look dull so it's hard to tell. Not sure about the emblem on the hood, though. As long as you're happy as that's the only opinion that counts.

Since you asked for my opinion:

But, it doesn't matter if I like it, it only matters if you like it.

The flames look good but not too keen on the giant C6 cross flags on the hood.
