the car looks sick man. im surprised how much of a difference a drop, and wheels can do to change the whole look of a car.

JP_GXP

I still miss the pinstripe.

I'm glad you got rid of the pinstripe and other red stuff. I didn't like any of the red stuff you added, but now it looks sweeeeeet. Are you able to park it over curbs or do you have to not pull in all the way?

thanks man....i wasnt too sure of 20's cuz im not a big fan of big rims but this set fit very nice IMO

sorry lol

with other red stuff are you talking about besides the stripe? i rarely encounter curbs because i park in BFE....if i do though 99% of i wouldnt be able to pull all the way up to.

Brangeta

Err... well, I don't know what your engine bay currently looks like (if you got rid of the red when you got rid of the red pinstripe) but I think the engine bay would look better with navy blue braces, black instead of red on the engine cover, and silver "GXP" the box.

well since you mentioned it once i get the money i will be redoing some of the paint under the hood....the engine mount brace is going to be navy blue and the dog bone will stay red....the diagonal braces will go to navy blue and the STB will be red...i thought about doing the GXP in white also....i agree there is a lot of red going on

Brangeta

Cool, I'd like to see it when you redo those items! The red is pretty overwhelming, especially since it is glossy. The only red I typically like on engine bays is a matte red like Ferrari and Maserati use on their cars the last few years.

When I have more time... I think the all blue, without the airbox painted looks best.

I ended up getting annoyed and photoshopped it myself for about 15 or 20 minutes. I normally wouldn't do this since it eats into my work time, but if somebody wants the PSD file I saved, let me know the email address you want it sent to.



Since you like to paint things, it'd be cool if you painted the iron portion of the exhaust manifolds as well.
