Wow, that looks excellent, although it would be good if there was a way to tint the headlight lenses a bit.

I think the color of your car helps with the black. Looks good!

Thanks guys,
The extra holes you see in the rubber are for these. 1973 US bumpers...  ::)
Lost them a while back and just so happen to find them in a shoebox.
Wish I didn't have to use them, but will have to until I get replacement rubber.
Plan to take more pics tomorrow when sun is out to get a better feel for it and get the red to jump out.

That's a cool look; smoked headlights and maybe taillights would really make it more pronounced.

That seems very good. I crave to have your abaility to paint.

samuli

That looks great! I am wondering how it would look like if the, what used to be chrome, frame of the grille was in body color and only the "grille" of the grille black.

arman

I think it really looks great too! The black finish looks very neat.

Now I think you should paint your wheels in the same black... no more worries about brake dust either...

Nice work alltogether!
