We are really not rushing it. I am thinking second primer coat early next week then another week of work, maybe 1 and a half to 2 weeks. We are going slowly on purpose to let the primer and the glass season is the best way I can express it.

So had a friend photoshop with accent stripes

One vote for red lines.
I like the red best, but would go with a pair of pinstripes, maybe 1/8" topped by 1/16" and a 1/16" gap? The big bold "accent stripe" is too much, to my eye, but it may be different with the fenders in place. Hard to say....
I like the red also.
BUT! With that detail highlighted, I now see the whole front ( ahead of the cowl) is missing the lower body detail / molding.
And I now cannot "un-see" it... 8-(
You've done such an amazing job "sleek-ing it up" that it really needs the stripe. I like the red.
That is just a model, we will have the front cowl and roof on the car when finished
See, I told you me eyes weren't good! LOL
Carry on!
I like the red stripe as well.
Definitely red!
Vote red with blue outline. Your eyes can't focus on both colors at the same time so the stripe appears to move...shimmer?
Actually red is long wavelength and blue is short wavelength, looking at both close together screws with your cones in our eyes.
Did this years ago on a 67 Cougar and got lots of interesting looks/comments.
So this will be the last prep before the next primer coat. We think it will be the last coat

There is a lot of actual effort going into the bottom nose cowl for the front. As we have worked our way forward on the car, straightening and alining all the seams and joints, the imperfections are coming out in the fitment of that piece. Significantly the piece will be in a stressful mounting so Kory and the guys are paying a lot attention to aligning it and then ensuring a good fit. It should unfold in the next week.
Thanks for the update, can't wait to see the results.
Final Draft, I think this is where we are going.
