Do they want to prototype a 350 as well?

It has gone over to a Satin Pearl White with Satin Black accents. I finished her up Thursday night but have not had a chance to take any good pictures. Will do so this week once I get the lowering springs on. I love the color on the car, fits it very well.

Alright here is a few quick pics! Satin Pearl White with Satin Black roof along with doing Satin Black on all chrome surfaces. Tinted the headlights also for a slightly different look and protection from road debris.

Here are some more updated pics as of today out in the sun. I just installed the Tein H-Tech springs as I just wanted a mild drop, I am sure they will settle a tad bit more over the next week. It has 25mm H&R Spacers on it as well. I went with a Satin Pearl White Wrap and did the Roof, Chrome window trim and front grill trim in Satin Black. The headlights and center grill emblem have been tinted as well as the rear bumper reflectors. Still undecided about doing a light film on the taillights or not, I kind of like them how they are.

The wrap looks amazing! How did you tint your front badge? I like that look.

Thanks! I used the same material we use to tint the headlights, just put it right over it and it darkens it up a bit and takes 5 minutes to do. If you know anything about vinyl it is Oracal's 8300 series material in Middle Grey color.

Thanks man, i will do something similar with mine. Ideally I'd just paint the chrome logo instead of tinting but there is no way since it's just one unit.

Yeah when I had it apart I realized there wasnt much you could do and since everything else was blacked out I had to at least dumb down the chrome inside so putting that overtop blends it in with the front more so now which is what I wanted. Hate Chrome anything!

something looks off on your pass front door, it could just be the lighting but it could also be the grain on the wrap is opposite everything else? still a nice color choice!
