:lol: Sorry. :P :D

Not sure what you thought there'd be to laugh at, though. I see a cleanly painted engine and very nice three-tone interior, so other than a bit of crazing(?) of the plastic on the top of the dashboard, it looks great.

I would do something to the wheels...maybe white to match the stripes?

Great looking paint job, Black is very unforgiving color. I think the 3 color Interior gives it a little more interest. The only thing I would consider at this point might be a different color for the Air Cleaner Element. Depending on manufacture I have seen red to dark red and even a green one.

I think it looks really nice, and I especially like the 3-color interior.  David is right, though; black can be very unforgiving.  Looks like you did a nice job on the body.  The air cleaner could even be pink, like K&N.

It's not cheap, though!  It's $368.

Build looks great. You don't often see 3 color interiors that look good, yours is great. I think it would look good with some "20 or  bigger wheels.

Like the interior, strips on steering wheel not to my taste but looks good.  The body looks great, smooth like glass.  Can’t wait to see it all complete.  I agree with post above that white wheels would look good, maybe newer Viper srt10 or ACR wheels
