Really not my cup of tea, but the bottom looks too 'orangey'

Maybe with a darker red and also a darker gray/silver? Also the air dam may look better completely painted or the areas not red painted black.

The roof would depend on what you do in the back though...

you cant have spaces in your picture titles.

im not sure i like the red/silver either. looks as little to much like a 80's R/C toy with the sticker pack...

the hood/grille stripe i like, but in dark silver or black, not red. even the two tone under the black strip looks good, but again, black or dark silver.

OK, I'll try it again in darker silver or a black and see how it looks. I'll post my rendering in a little.

That is to much red for my taste. I always thought the darker colors like a real dark gray looked better.

This is the black. I like the black, with a red outline.

Eh, I don't like it... The paint scheme lines just don't mate together well at all.
