I like the blacked out grill on the darker colors. I only did the insert and emblem on ours, a blacked out surround wouldn't look quite right on white.

Were you going to paint the UCA clearance box?

Those amber sidemarkers were bugging me for the longest time. Installed my clear smoked side markers and put in led bulbs

Looks nice, as always. That under hood silver is awesome. It makes it look just that much cleaner. Many props.

I dont know if i like all the black paint you're running Vincent. But i really wonder how it would look with black wheels and chrome/polished edges, Tinted fog lights and taillights. Actually i think it would match up pretty good. Low black evil monster

I like the bay a lot, but I get kinda nit-picky...you should remove the battery handle strap and try and move the + batt terminal so its along the side of the battery.....naww mean?
