I'm debating on painting my hood and spoiler to match the rest of the car, except leave the roof/pillars black.

If anybody could help me it would be greatly appreciated. Also maybe one of the car completely black. I haven't made up my mind yet.

If I paint the hood/spoiler to match the rest of the car, I will most likely buy some chrome SC's, and keep the termi's if I paint the car black.

It would be easier to do this if you got some pictures that didn't have so many shadows or reflections. Makes it easier to blend the colors in. I have found covered parking garages to be best when trying to get this kind of picture.

Yes DO IT.

Paint the hood and spoiler to match the red. Leave the roof and pillars. But also, paint the tail light bezels black.

Here's the one with everything red except the roof and pillars. Tried matching the colors best with the reflections and shadows but it was a pain, so this is what I did instead.

Dayum, it actually looks pretty good. (The photoshop work and the results)

The whole car in black would look good, but you have to remember our cars trap a lot of heat. Personally I wouldn't want to forcibly attract more heat.

These ought to give you a pretty good idea how it would look, too: Supercharged 1997 Ford Mustang

Thank you for the p-chop. I'm still debating on doing that and adding the chrome SC rims, or leaving it as is.
