i think it looks nice right now, except around the windows, i would shave the door handles though and I think it would look sweet if you painted the black area red and the yellow area white, ive seen that on an older style vette and it looked good. I also think the carbin fiber looks good too.

I think a deep black would look good.
I really like that hood , where'd you get it? Do they make those for other xmods beside the Vette?
All yellow would look good too, especially with that hood.

no matter what color you go with, be sure to keep that carbon fiber on it

thats exactly what i had in my mind
to make the carbon fiber hood i used a HPI Graphite Decal, you can find it in your local hobby shop or on this website http://www.hpiracing.com/index2.htm

I think you should research some real corvette colors and take that into account. I always liked that corvette racing blue, the one with the two red stripes over the front fender/wheel well...

you should do a metallic blue like janikphoto said, but do a white or silver racing stripe down the middle.

the blue sounds like a good idea, with white viper stripes

gray:
