I even try to keep it that way in the engine bay, with a black intake, with polished rails.


All Silver & Black, not a single other color on the car, except the rear marker lights that I just have been to lazy to Night-Shade. My favorite thing about my car was making my entire top half of the car black. Other then that I love the scheme, and I always get compliments!

Just a simple monochromatic scheme for my car. Black with metal color [polished, brushed, stainless].

Polished WS6 wheels, polished stainless steel rear inserts from dragonz28, black with etched outline Firebird throttle body.





I'm going to polish the wheels this winter. And I'm planning on getting my intake powdercoated, but not sure what color i want. A local shop has this gunmetal color that looks really good. And I'm thinking that with the lines on top of the intake would look really good under the hood.

LALT1, that is a killer shade of blue, and I am usually not a fan of the brighter versions. Is that an OEM paint or did you get that done somewhere? Very nice either way.

An obvious but none the less work intensive theme.

my theme is still work in progress. im going for a different kind of grey with phantom stripes and just got the car painted. im thinking of painting the wheels gunmetal, or maybe get gunmetal TT2. And get the conv top redone in grey, as well as interior in light/dark grey.

opinions welcome as its still a work in progress

I guess I talk for a lot of guys here that a REAL theme is what this thread is all about. Getting a pic and manipulating it in a computer should be left for the photoshop section. Real bad theme BTW, hope no f-body gets this humiliated.

Great cars and themes guys, except for this one of course......lets keep it going! The thread is awesome so far!!!!!!

Pun intended, being an ******* was not meant to be. I was just sharing that more and more often people post simply to just show off their car. Even though it doesn't help the thread or offer anything. Sorry for offending you

^^this thread is just about appearance themes, how the hell are people supposed to show their themes without pictures? It wouldn't be as much fun with just descriptive words. There is not really much advice that people can give in this thread because that is not what it is about.

You're one to talk Mr. I post my car in every post. I think I saw you post the exterior of your car a few days ago after a guy was asking for some interior shots and you just had to show them what the outside of your car looks as well And that defintely wasn't the first time I saw you do somethin like that
