Re: Paint Theme ????

WOW!! That Green and Brown combo is really bad. I think I just threw up in my mouth a little!

I do kinda like the idea of the colored interior paneling though. Black and Red might not be bad.

Re: Paint Theme ????

his excuse is "hes only 15 so of course its a pos"... Im 15 and my car is almost perfectly straight, too bad mines still in primer though.

I do think the interior paneling could look good with a different color though.

Re: Paint Theme ????

That is a straight T/A, just needs paint and you'll be set.

Might have to pick up some panels from the Treasure Chest (A.K.A. Salvage Yard) and give the colored panel thing a try.

Re: Paint Theme ????

I like the silver gfx look on some maro's.........but I don't think painting the spoiler is a good idea. YOu could leave the spoiler alone and put a bumble bee stripe on the rear........just a thought
