Under the right light with a much better camera it looks like this,
The best part is I did it all myself!!!! Bodywork and everything! 100% home built! But Im not nearly finished, its gotta be painted again (not by me this time though lol).
Should give credit where credit is due though,

this may be a dumb comment, but where are your door handles? Your car looks plain sick. I think if you were to start fooling with vinyls, I would suggest only using greys, dark greys, and light greys to a minimalistic design. Keep it tonal and I think you will have a sweet ride.
*edit
This is an afterthought, but if you dont like the idea of grey vinyls, what if the design was a combination of flat and glossy? In my head this would look even better than vinyls. keep it black but you have the subtlety of flat to glossy. I don't know what the parameters are of painting the car. I was thinking maybe if you masked off certain areas? Sorry for all the ideas.. I am a full time designer and your car looks like a blank canvas of opportunities. =)

I think it needs a more aggressive front bumper maybe...I can't quite put my finger on what I dont like, but I think its maybe the very rounded front.
I do however like the satin black. I look at your pictures often

The more you guys talk about the front the more I agree. I have always liked this one the best but this car does beg for more aggressiveness and some thing to keep your eyes flowing to the back, if that makes sense. I'm definately feeling grey colors and not gloss/matte. I just cant decide what to do!! I wish you guys could see the car in person cause it really changes your whole outlook. I honestly dont like the car in pictures but when its in front of you...
At the moment to enter the vehicle I just roll down the windows and open from the inside. Really not as big of a deal as you would think. After removing the handles this car looks amazing!!!!! I would never put them back on! You gotta see it in person.

No, he needs contrast. The "murdered out" look has the potential to look really bad with that paint job. I don't think he was going for that look anyway.
