Thanks! I had never considered blacking out the tail panel. Kris did not discuss this but I can see that it might look good. Well, it is not in the paint shop yet.

Tracy, your project looks amazing.

Love the color combo and stripe, and your wheel choice. Please keep us posted.

I actually agree with Allen. Looking back on it, the tail panel would probably look better in black. Hindsight really is 20/20, but in this case it can still be changed. I avoided doing it back when were were messing with the 2-tone idea and never thought to go back to it. If you want, I'll gladly do one or two shots with the tail panel in black.

I like the new stripe a lot better too, I think it suits the car much better than our original idea. The car should look great once it's finished!

Wonder if the tail in gloss black would look good, with a matching pinstripe at the top going across to keep the theme with the stripe

Yeah, I think the basic flat black would work well. One question though.... You gonna have to pop the trunk to put gas in every time?

No, I have a Rick's tank and the neck still comes up behind the license tag as far as I know. The rendering does not show the tag.
