The fuel door and fog lamps are amazing.

I actually like the paint scheme, so I like the car from the door handle to part of the fender...the idea is cool, could have been done correctly...but overall, this is fail

I think it could have been done differently and "worked". It's obviously patterned after those late 50s vettes, which were a much simpler "roadster" that didn't really bark of "muscle car". The hood, spoiler, brake vents, air dam, ground effects etc - don't work because they're not "roadster", they're "muscle car". Pick a style, and run with it, but don't try to combine both.

The fog lights cool look a lot better with more work. 50's Vette paint scheme (the white) is not working with the lines of the car...... it would look better with the factory head lights. Get rid of the extra body work around the tail lights... Gas cap sticks out like s sore thumb. Wheels don't look right.

That would help a lot.... granted it is pretty much everything.

Too many themes going on at once, it's the C5Z/60 vette/ricer wannabe vette.

Looks like someone went crazy with their Mid America catalog.

No doubt. Restraint was the problem here.

I see in the custom hot rod scene too.... "two" many themes.
