OK! Back in action.. need some opinions

After a small hiatus due to my job closing down, I am starting to get back into the swing of things...

First and foremost!:
I've come down to 2 different choices of how I want to paint it (I decided I am keeping it red/black, and going for black/yellow on a different car. (Yes, the heads/intake are black for those who saw those bad bad pictures.) )

Decided to keep it a RS and support the heritage, and not slap some silly SS emblems on it. So I tried my luck with a hockey stripe variation...
(grill emblem idea stole from mw lol)

What it looks like now:


And what I am aiming for (With stripes):


Heres stripe #2:


and heres without a stripe:


I am rather stuck on what I want to do from the red accents on the front and hood... any opinions bad or good appreciated.

Heres some of my exhaust pictures.. shorties ftw..








This rims I'm going to get...:

15x8 up front, 15x10 out back. 235/60/16 and 275/60/15 respectively

I don't care if you hate it, post! Last time I posted I only got 2 responses from 2 cool guys up north and I wanna see if I can change that, lol.

Is the plan to paint the car in the black and red pattern in those pictures? I personally dont like how it looks and I dislike the hockey stripes even more.

I say do it all either red or black, lower it some and just keep it nice and simple.

Not liking it. The way you have the black and red together makes it look unfinished. I say you repaint the entire car red, then add black stripes to the side of the SS hood, black headlight buckets, and black gfx. Try a photoshop with that and see if you like it.

do the whole car black w/ red head light buckets, and the red sides of the ss hood, i think those look bad a$$, and i'm not a fan of the hockey stripe either, but if you want red on the side, just paint the door ding trim red, or atleast photoshop it cuz i wanna see it dont listen to me...
