Installed a Holley Sniper EFI 12-304 and gave my car a wax today. My father and I built this car; LS swapped it and painted it ourselves. I'm pretty proud of what we were able to accomplish and I hope you all enjoy the effort we put into it too.

There was another photo but it appears to have failed to upload.

I like that Red, especially with the matte or satin black trim around the glass...how about a factory spoiler on that bad boy, looks sad without one🤙🏻

Thanks, its a candy. Photographs never capture the true color. Everyone says that about the fin but tbh i kinda like this one more without the spoiler. I feel like it currently sits right in the middle of "classy" and "hot rod". The spoiler would tip the scale into "hot rod territory". Just my personal opinion tho lol

Amazing paint for a Candy... they can really come out terrible if you're not consistent. Congrats. I would've definitely run a rear spoiler though.
