That would look great with a black bowtie upfront.

I am not a fan of black wheels, but I do think this combination would look good if you also painted the grille mesh black and got rid of the chrome on the door handles.

well since i posted this i've painted the mesh in the grill black, painted the bowtie black, along with the mesh grill in the bumper cover..simple yet made a huge difference.ill post a new pic in the mornin
plan on smokin the tail lights and third brake light..not to much though also 5% tint sides and rear,black and pewter look pretty good together lol hope i dont over do it

and i've decided to go with the chrome ss wheels,i was shocked to find out there only 210 a wheel from discount tire, replicas of coarse but oh well

If you didn't want to do that, you could (as an alternative) put fog lights in those ducts. I've seen a few people on here do that. I think it looks good.

lookin good man keep up the good work.. still got a long way for a true SS conversion but hey dont blame you, SS conversions are damn expensive... the SS rear bumper is a must but doesnt look good at all without the cladding.... damn SS conversions !
