Rob,
Sharp eye.
It's not quite as noticeable on George's car because of the dark Blue but on mine it pretty much hits you in the face...subtle has never been a word I've understood too well...
It is George's idea (he's had it on his car as early as '71 I believe and he bought it new) and we incorporated it into the look of my car because in a sea of '69 Camaro's,you gotta do what you gotta do to stand out.
