looks pretty good, i think the plastic panel is too much orange or red though, can't really tell, i'd paint it black and keep the rest.

good job tho

I would agree the plastic cover might be a little too much color, perhaps if you work some black into it, or a design..

And then as others have said ENGINE COVER
If you can work a design into both it may be neat and unique, If you have any thoughts I could photoshop it for you to get an idea.

Hi Justin. Hey it must have warmed up in Windsor for you to be under the hood. You did a lot of work to make it look that good. Now you have a great start. I like what your doing so far. Next if you could get the engine cover finished. Me being an old Harley rider myself. I like the color combo. Remeber one thing Justin. Not everyones going to like what we do to our Monte's. But if it makes you happy. Thats all that counts. Go for it Dude. Looks 75% better already

I like the orange but would add some black in there. Maybe the lined area or The raised up areas. Like on the edges. i dont really know how to explain it.
