The Grey looks off to me. It looks like a primer color on the sides and inside the scoops. I don't mind it in the back bumper area, but I think it'd look better red or black.

Looking at it more the paint is growing on me, I think he was going for a 3rd gen TA color scheme.

Oh and the strut tower brace looks to be a Hotchkis. Go here, click on suspension, scroll down and click on strut tower braces. Full Throttle Performance, LLC - Your Corvette, Camaro and Firebird Marketplace shop it around though I'm sure they're out there for a little bit cheaper.

I need to get a nice camera and go take cool pictures places other than a driveway with oil in it.

Now the paint is one year and one month old,

at the time of those pictures it was like 3 months old...

That color is called Dark Shadow Grey, they used it on the 03-04 Cobras and I loved it! It somewhat looks like purple pearl metallic that they had on the Camaro. I dont know what all years they had the purple pearl metallic on the Camaro, but I know it was around 94.

Yeah, it looks quite stupid. It's a photoshop edit though, I can tell by looking at it.
