Re: Back to my first love

Teal on white works, but something about this particular end result, it gives me a vibe of not-right. Still, it looks clean, straight, and well cared for. Welcome!

Your car seems to have sprouted an off-center hood ornament that might impede the driver's forward view.

Or smoked black signals and paint the headlight buckets black and get a black outline on the teal bowtie. Probably not as clean but there'd be a very nice contrast going on.

Yeah, I have been on those sites. I have had a Camaro before, but it has been a few years. So great to be back.
