Was bored and took some evening pics

Well ive never taken pictures of my car with the windows up. Also i painted my grilles black instead of silver. So i figured why not do it really late in the day and have evening pictures of it blacked out.

BLACK IS A BITCH. Its hard to keep clean. Scratches and Swirls appear more easier.. Dude i wont repaint it man. Yours is deff one of the best Firebirds out there. Black is badass on a Bird

Thanks for the compliments
Well i like black but there are a lot of black cars there is nothing different about it. I want it to stand out at shows. My dad has a 68 camaro we just had painted bright yellow with black SS stripes so it will stand out. I was thinking about painting it to a color similar to tangerine orange with metallic in it. I want to have a one off car.

for a one off version of your car - why don't you try some specialty stripes? I know the ones I've seen on the 4th gen WS6 TAs (that have a stripe on each nostril that ends in a small bird) would look great on your car and have yet to be done.
