Default Red Alert's Photoshoot and Interior Dash Finished Pics

Couple buddies of mine and I went out to a local parking garage and took some pics. I also took pictures of my interior with the new carpet and the front dash being all finished smoothed and painted. I still have the center console and the back half of the car to do, but alas I had to stop for Easter since we're having the family over. Anyway, here's the pics.

Clean install that works with your setup.

You plan on changin out the exhaust tips? Some quad tip would fit in those openings perfectly.

Car looks great. Like Stretch's TA said, its growing on me.

I would still like to see you lose those flamming gauge overlays, though. I don't think they go with rest of your car. Otherwise, its a thumbs up.

Don't worry guys, red gauges are definitely in the plans at this point, just a matter of finding the right company to make them (it'd be a custom gauge, no one makes red faced gauges) and the money for it. Quad tips are also in the plans too, again just matter of time and money. I wanna get the painting done first, then start with the replacing of parts.. gauges, shiftknob, e-brake, HVAC overlays, tint windows, reupholster the seats, quad tips, etc. Any case, thanks for the compliments guys

Glad to see that you're getting compliments rather than being ripped appart this time

I think your car is looking really good!

A little bit of constructive criticism. The interior is turning out nice...here's a suggestion....take it or leave it....but think about it.

Red is a real hot and strong color (especially against black). Silver is a really good accent color for red and for the interiors. I would try to mix some Silver in rather than doing straight red & black. The more red you add....the more overpowering the interior will be (especially having all the red with the exterior of the car).

Just my $.02....but your car's coming along nicely!
