Heres a link to some pics I took of it, should have let it dry first. But you guys get the idea. It goes in for tint tomorrow because its in desperate need of that final touch. Bad time of the day also for the pics from the angles, the more i look at them the more i realize how much justice they don't do it... grrr.

don't like it at all... i just can't let myself like that car... the black and red is too much... painting the insert on the rear bumper just made me say no... i kinda like the emblems but not the rear bumper...

Those are a couple with white bowties. I just painted them. It should give you somewhat of an idea painted bowties look like.

You can get red SS emblems off Ebay, for a Monte. I was going to pick some up for my white SS but I've decided to go naked. Still have my SS emblems for now but they're coming off soon...

I actually was just driving behind a Monte SS and was thinking about that, but i didn't mind painting them anyways and now they match the calipers perfect.
