New idea, how do you think it would look.

[cantrip]

Im considering buying a new transam/firehawk/formula. I want to get it painted when i buy it to SOM. I was going to go with the som/black theme. How do you think it would look if i got a black car to start with then got it painted som, but left the door jambs/inside part of the door and engine bay black? would it looks stupid or would it look kind of cool...

thoughts?


Just adding the extra visual: The interior would be pretty much all black, so the inside parts of the door will match when opened... i dno, just thinking about it.

i think itd look kinda funny, but it might not be too bad.

Re: New idea, how do you think it would look.

I was just thinking as long as everything else inside is black, and then black rims and tint, it will match pretty good. along with blacked out corners and tails. It will almost look like the whole door is part of the interior. i dont know, i kind of like it, haha, i like being different.

What do you mean it has to be black? The original color? Yea thats what I meant.

Its not a budget thing, even if its a joke, if it is, I just think it might be kind of cool.


But yea, originally black. Get it painted SOM except for the engine bay and door jambs/door sils and stuff.

Thats funny you posted this. I was thinking about the same exact thing the other day. I'm not too sure how it would look. Why don't you give it a shot and give us some pictures. Then we can enjoy how good it looks or flame you for doing it and making it look like crap.

Haha, thanks. Well, either way, its not gonna happen for a while. I need to save up for all of this first.

It sounds like it would be cool, but a lot of people would assume you didn't leave the door jams black on pouropus and assume you were being cheep. You have to think of a way to make it look intentonal, maby a facy door sill or some kind of painted on door jam emblum, just so people know you ment to have black door jams. Just my 2 cents.

I get what your saying. Maybe have like a small SOM bird in there or something, or maybe even a stripe or something. good thought.

I think it was Viper that had black door jams on his yellow camaro. I thought it really looked nice. As long as the line between the body color and the black is crisp, it should look intentional, and I think it would look nice. The engine bay would definitely look nice.

if you buy a firehawk, then repaint it a different color, you'd be an idiot. those cars are worth a good bit more than any other fbod for a reason, dont mess with the appearance of one, not even rims.

x2...dont mess with a firehawks paint...nothing. someone should try it on photoshop and see if they can make anything of it...I am curious but i think it'll look like the halloween-mobile or something...black with orange accents would be original though.

Yah a bird or a stripe the same color as your exterior would be cool. Maby paint the door sill to match the exterior too(as long as no one steps on it)

But I don't know anything about fire hawks, that's just stuff I would do to my $3000 camaro.
