Pic of the bird from this weekend
All the paint was redone this past spring where I work, it used to be yellow with black stripes, after getting hit in the rear, I stripped the car to bare metal just about and redid the paint. I mixed the color myself, it's sunburst orange and sunset orange mixed together.

I might end up with a RA-1 hood eventually, but for now the RAII stays. It was one of the first hoods my GTAuto a few years ago. What do you guys think about the bumper inserts? Should I paint them black or leave them body color?

The more I see that color the more I like it, definitely grows on you. Great job on the paint, by the way.
