I like it, I would add a small red pinstipe on each of the spokes of the wheels right down the center. Other than that, I like it, the two tone and the pinstripe.

I like it.If you want the center caps without the cost,just get the picture of what you want,have a vinyl graphics place make you 4 stickers,and off you go.That's how I made my Thunderstang emblem when I designed it.

Have you considered tinting the headlight assemblies?  While I normally don't like doing that, with your paint scheme it might work.  The wheels need something to perk them up, a stripe around the rim or a stripe on the (leading edge or center of the) spokes.  At least in the pics you've posted.  Maybe in person they look great.

The trouble is that you don't want the car to be too busy.  Be careful about adding too much.  Overall, your design comes off really well, IMO.
