I don't know about the black, but the red on the emblem def. needs to go lol. Match it to your stickers.

What stickers?

Only sticker on my car is a WOT-Tech logo on the bumper.

I'm a non badged Z26 since so many on bstuff would call me out for badging a Base as a Z26... BLOW ME... lol, but I also left them off for a cleaner look.

Also only color in the sticker appears to be a silver and black... At least the ones that MRZ makes.

Thanks... The hood actually needs a bit more work... All the areas where it was cracked before seemed to hint a line when it dried over the months... You can see a hit of lines on the edges where the previous owner had dropped it and stressed it in those spots. I'm not sure if buffing would help it or not... I also have some small cracks on my front bumper too, in a very odd spot.

That Z emblem picture is not my car either... that was a factory Raspberry one that someone had on Bstuff. Just in case you didn't know.

Yup, that was Trump's Z26, you can see him in the reflection... haha

I would black out that bowtie. Pink and red is never a good combo... too close for contrast but too far away to be a good analogous match on the color wheel. Your black wheels, fillers & tint make it a no brainer.

I would leave the bowtie red.

Sometimes the mis-match that is the OEM combination just grows on you.

I had a brand new '74 Duster 360 that was black and came from the factory WITH A BLACK STRIP!

Actually looked neat once you got used to it.

:beer:

Like the purple/green Z26 and GT decals? I don't think so... haha

Jon, have you ever thought about a custom logo for the rear bumper to replace the (out of place IMO) WOT-TECH sticker? Lot's of high-dollar builders name their cars like Steve Rupp's "Bad Penny" or Johnny Hunkins' "g/28", etc. I could cut you something for free if you're interested.

How is the WOT-Tech sticker out of place? It's all of the engine parts I have. And my license plate already somewhat did the naming...

And ignoring Eric's comment... I wouldn't know what to call it.

It seems out of place advertising parts where the model designation should be. That's all.

A K&N or Summit sticker, etc under the hood or on the window somewhere looks fine, but putting one where it should say Z26, GTZ, etc just looks weird to me. I get crap for me "SS" but to me that is still more fitting in that spot than "WOT-Tech".

A Barbie sticker would go really nice right there... :P

If I did put a Z26 sticker there I would get crap from the purists on bstuff... and thats not the reason thats stopping me either... I've been very tempted to buy a set of Z logos, but I really don't like to advertise the model, I like the clean look. I'd rather have them look at it and go... WTF kind of car is that? and the only designation is the rear filler and the ghosted windshield banner.
