  • A few plans...looking for suggestions.







    Okay. 2 things i'm wanting to do.

    1) Clear/Black signal lenses. I'm just not sure what would go better with the overall scheme. Clear or black? I'm leaning toward black but im not sure.

    2) Hockey Stripes. Would these look good? Also, I planned on getting Silver Metallic and then also getting silver metallic for my bumper fill-ins from the same place (current ones are peeling) and that way it would match perfectly. BUT, my dad says I need to get red. Personally, I think it would look dumb. Black on red red looks good, but red on black? Bleh....plus im trying to go with the stealthy, badass looks not all flashy.

    Opinions?

    definitely stick with a black/siver theme. hockey stripes would look nice, but thats a matter of personal preference. for the corners, id say go with clear corners.

      I'd go with clear corners. The black ones would just disappear on the car. As for the hockey stripes, they're a must! The silver would look awesome on that car!!

        definitely go with the corner blackouts. Especially since you have the blackouts on the tails. If you're going to go with clears up front you should do altezzas out back. Just so they match. It looks good so far though!

            Hmm, I like the black/silver look ... I wonder why LOL I would also do the black signals too, and definitely lower it.



            The hockey stripes always look good also.

              I would agree with the silver hockey strips and I would recommend getting the corner light housing that is both, clear and black. I think that combo would fit your car nicely:)

                o would go for nite shading the signals... front and rear.... and then an aftermarket hood.... i wouldnt put any stripes on a black car, i would keep it as black as i could with the exception of things that are supposed to stick out, like wheels...... good job so far....

                  I would probably go with black for the signals, or you could get the ones blackmaro has, with a clear lens and black behind. Other than that, i would say stay away from hockey stripes on the black. I'm not a fan of hockeys anyway, but on black i think it would look worse.

                      Yeah...

                      Im still not sure what I want to do. I've had quiet a few people tell me the stripes would looks awesome on my car, but ive also had an equal amount of people tell me not to..


                      btw, car is on a hill in the first pic, thats why the rear is high.
