Great looking Cutlass. Keep it all black. I think a chrome grille, i prefer 84 grilles, and chrome bezels. This would match the wheels. What ever you do, you need to be happy when it is finished.
It’s got a black and chrome grille and black and chrome headlight buckets ( later 442? )
Also has an aluminum hood with a hurst scoop , it’s just not put back together yet. Had a cowl induction hood , but it was too heavy for the hinges, so I bought a scoop and put the original hood back on .

As others have said it's your car and you want to be proud of the results.
To my eye it needs a little something somewhere to break up all the black. But boy does that black look nice.

Sorry wrote my reply before you posted the original pic. The original shows what I was talking about. Very sharp.

Thinking of at least putting body side moulding back on . Car came out so nice I’m gonna cry when it gets it’s first scratch . I miss the original painted pin stripe also. I bought gold 442 door decals but I don’t think they will look right . Just can’t decide which way to go with it

If you can't figure out how to fvck it up, it must be perfect (aside from that stupid LS 🤪).

I know how you feel.

When I look at mine I feel like it is "missing" something.

Just the solid black with nothing to break it up.
