Paint Ideas for 4th Gen/ Thoughts?
 
7 Attachment(s)
*Updated with better pictures.
So I have been playing around with a "two-tone" paint scheme to complement my wheels. Sort of a throw back to a 3rd gen paint scheme.
Painting the hood silver to match the car with maybe some stripes or decals on the side of the ram air. Any thoughts?
No bottom stripe?
Bottom gunmetal stripe only?
Bottom gunmetal with black stripe?

Any thoughts?
I changed the CETA mod to black and I think it looks better.

I don’t know why, but I love it. If it was any bigger it would be too much, but I like the subtlety of it.

that would look pretty awesome. I've never seen anyone else have something like that

Hood Stripes

Thanks for the replies. Now to figure out hood stripes for the smoothie Q hood.
I'm leaning towards the smaller side stripe.
Thoughts or comments?

For the hood I would just do black with black pinstripes

Finally my smoothie Q hood is finished. The custom stripes turned out great! I think at some point I'll try out the "3rd gen" paint scheme, but for now I'm satisfied and have plenty of other upgrades to spend money on.:D

jaxcam02 04-06-2018 12:18 PM

hell yea. looks tight, when you finish the other paint ideas you'll have one awesome looking car.

Makes me wish I had done stripes on my Smoothie!

I know fourth circle designs has a wsQ style stripe, but I couldn’t find any pictures of it.

Those stripes are killer! What wheels are those?
