Yea everything looks good except the side skirts, like he said looks like you havent had time to paint them yet......But if you were to somehow go all the way around the car with the red, it might look better, but i think just the blue and white stuff looks perfect, adding a 3rd color is a bit overkill...but your car do what YOU want

I thought the exact same thing. The blue and white looks great and the red
halos go with it just fine. Those side skirts look like they are spare parts
waiting to be painted.

Thanks all for your honesty. I am getting a variety of answers. A couple like it, a couple hate it, some think it looks like a new panel that hasn't been painted yet, and many think the 2 colors don't match all that great. I do agree that it is a bit choppy and needs some better flow. Like I said I am still torn. I do think that if I decide to keep the red I will need to do some other changes. A few possibilities that I have considered if I do keep the red rockers are to remove the white gills, put red pinstriping around the rally stripes, paint my wheels black with a red lip, or even changing out the rally stripes to red. I still have yet to see an IBM with red stripes and I am horrible at photo-shopping to see. And just to let you know the red is plasti dip so if I do decide to go back, it's just a matter of peeling it off. Once again, thanks for your opinions.

I think because it's blue maybe if the car was Red/IOM/White with a black rocker that would look good or even if you did the rocker in white to match everything else but the contrast is off def
