Any advice?

Looking good. I would pc the upper rocker box cover as well. That way there is a nice amount of contrast between upper and lower rocker boxes. I'd also get a black exhaust to along with it and a black aftermarket air filter. And for sure black out the console. If it were mine I'd actually murder out the entire thing.

I like black, no, I love black. My car is black, my truck is black and I almost went with a vivid black RK. Then I though about the dirty crappy roads in the locale and though about the cleaning chore. So I went with the ember red sunglo / merlot sunglo combination.

Here's my black car next to my red bike...
