IMO the satin black looks too "unfinished", for lack of a better term. The satin grey on that Bently looks very good, however.

Here's an update; still not finished and by the looks of it they still have a few more days to install it all back. Take note satin black really looks different in different lightings. Here it is in the studio looking almost gunmetal! I feel like it looks best at night and in the shade

Looking great. Like many have said, the question is where to put the red accents, because of the soft curves, it makes it a bit tough. The GS hash marks would be nice, or something of that fashion.

yes yes, it really is a tough decision. I'll be testing different spots and photoshopping some more to come to a final decision.

you mean the crazy creativity? I've gone this far into the build and it's turned into a dream. I've done 1 or 2 things to it where I thought they would be really cool and turns out that I didnt really like look so I took it off asap

Why? That's a step from led lights in the wheels like the truck bros do here.
