I would say it to him face to face. I mean some people like the "Smart Car'. He likes his Creation, I don't.

ive seen flat black in person and it is awesome.

this is what i would say (if i remembered to) "It would look a lot better, man, without all the cheap metal turds up and down the sides."

Does it matter if we'd say it to his face? Some might say that's actually more disrespectful.

That said, I don't like it at all. Flat black looks awesome, but nothing "limited" about that. Shiny silver plates with rivets? Come on. None of his bikes look this hideous. Every Camaro I see makes me stop and say, "Wow, nice." This is the first exception. I want to like it, because I like Paul's designs (as well as his dads), but it just looks amateurish. It's what I'd expect from a high school shop class in the mid-West, about 30 years ago.

Not sure what your point is here, are folks supposed to be somehow intimidated by PJ in person? Everyone can use some criticism at some point in their professional life when they f'up, Do you think he's man enough to hear it is the question.....

Thinking this will be his first and last attempt at custom car building.... I understand he wants to be different, but it still has to be something someone wants to buy. Choppers can be over the top crazy... cars cannot

Car is not too impressive, but its ok. Rivets actually decals? Flat black paint is nice, plus the rims as well. Should have got some -> with some other options for those decals. I would have liked to see actual paint work on the car and not the decals. With his talent, he could have came up with something cool for paint.

the rivets are not decals, those are actual aluminum panels and real rivets holding them on, as are the copper numbers

Not a good interpretation in my opinion. I think he should have been more traditional, perhaps some retro hood scoop or working brake ducts/veants or side fender vents like the second gen cars. The side vinyls are tacky.
