Very nice! Nice choice of a fiery red. See, the more you use vector drawing the better you'll get.

Only a couple things I'd have done differently... if you look on the template at the hood, you'll see two little triangles that stick out the back end. Pant those two black so you don't have those two red spots under the a-pillar. Second, I would have made that mid-car black stripe meet the side-rear windows. Also, make sure you roof number doesn't go under the roof rails.

It looks really nice, and I really like the translucent flames. Good job.

alright, i fixed the couple things you had mentioned, and it made a big difference, thanks for the critical eye.. i appreciate it. what you see coming under the roof rails is a path design i have going down the roof and trunk, i see what you mean though.. he wanted something agressive looking, i hope that will do.

Oh, yes. The curvature of those side stripes gives it a really agressive stance. Very clever.
