Saw this awesome Cougar at Sema last week!

Ok, I appreciate the workmanship involved. However, to my eye, it looks odd without the trim and chrome bumpers. Like “too much comp gold” when you remove those accents.
Maybe if they had just completely blacked out the trim? Or added stripes or something to break up the comp gold?

Yup - black bumpers would have looked great on it imho. Still an awesome Cougar!
As a 1970 cougar convertible owner i can respect the craftsmanship into this car. Perhaps painting the bumpers and the trim in black like mentioned by mike it would make that color stand out more then just all comp gold. Like that 69 convertible years ago when someone put alot of work into it only to put oversized tires on it and make it all one color including the bumpers. Removed the iconic center grille for a blank piece (hand made).
thanks

Great craftsmanship. I’d like to know more about that car. Anybody got a link to an article or know who built it?
