Looks nice. Only suggestion I would have is a vertical spoiler. But depends how much effort and money (and if you are interested in it) to do it.

If it was me, I'd strip off that black door bumper molding. Im not a fan of how they break up the flow of the lines on the car even from the factory, and personally I like them even less highlighted like that.

I'd also tint the windows. Dark windows would look nice with the black wheels.

If you get a chance on this forum there is a section under Gen M C talk that has a thread that is for the different Monte Colors pick the one that has 2018 on it that will be the best and most recent exmple. ( The official Red Monte Carlo )

PinStripe is a great way to customize the ride, the sixth gen MC has to many curves in the side of the car to really look good. The best is to find a start point and an end point and run a piece of tape for reference to put the pinstripe tape on, choose a double stripe for more depth and detail. Fender hash-marks are kinda cool, Wheel hash marks are cool too. Paint the calipers an accent color.
I have a Red vehicle that needed some extra and I will put that photo at the top of the page.

One little tip I can give is Black Wheels only look good if they are clean and shined up. If that doesn't work then they look horrible. If you like them that is fine maybe do a powder-coat on them. Back in the 60's we took the Wheel covers off the car and painted the bare wheel Black. This was the poor mans mag wheel back in the Day. Sometimes you could only buy 2 Wheels and tires at a time. so you had to run half on and half off.
Tint the glass as suggested also tint the headlights with covers. do not tint the tail lights perminatley use temporary covers, I want to light up the inside of the car following me so he stays out of the trunk of my car. Check the example photo's






front grill you need

Spoiler you need


Hood you might want
