Love the color combo, but not diggin' the wheels. Plus I would lower it about 3"... just my  :Twocents:

I'd do 5% tint all around and 30 on the windsheild to black it out, but the wheels, not so much :2thumbs:

color with the stripe is perfect, dont black out the windows, make the rims maybe an inch smaller and lower the crap out of it.

Did you build the model yourself? It definately is some quite impressive piece of work!  :2thumbs:
If you created it what program did you use?

A few point I noticed: I think the area at the C-Pillar needs a little bit of work - the roof rail looks slightly bent upwards, not straight. and the window rail is a bit too thin. plus the doors curves too much in the front and to little in the back.

other than that: awesome!

come on man...   if you're gonna do it - go all out...     I would change a few things (just opinions here) -

Wiper arms = black powder coat
Window A frames = Clack Chrome
side to 1/4 glass strips = Black Chrome
Wheels = Dark Grey / Polished lips
Grille Surround = Dark Argent

That's just me though - make the side glass look like one seamless piece - and the wheels / grille just for a little contrast but keep up with the blacked out theme   :2thumbs:

Still an awesome rendering!

Leave the big ass "pimp"/ "Bling bling" wheels(READ CHIP FOOSE) on the Cadillacs  :-\....You Charger looks Damn good ol skool as it is...

Musclecars just don't look right with that big a wheel on 'em...But, Alas, I guess that is what everybody is going to today...Not for me...Centerlines are the sh*t.....

I like the tint windows but if I was you man, I would go with the original kind of tires and not the wagon wheels.

hmmmmm... a lil better than the other wheels... but im not into the plain steel wheels....
im leaning towards 18" torque thrust II's.... or boyd "magneatos".. mwahahahaha lol i think a nice set of chrome wheels would be like "BAAAAAMMMMMM" against that sweeeet black paint!!!! i love the blacked out grill... that's what im gonna do to  mine also!!! love it.. makes it look soooo sinister!!! im debating on a flat black tail stripe like yours... or a dark gray one?!?!  :scratchchin:
