    looks very chrome only coz i assume your new to chops or dont have descent programs?

    bright and in your face colors like that i find are great when you 1st see it but its like doing tequilla shots. At 1st its awesome then after a while you just wanna throw up. Light metallic,candy or pearlescent paint on older cars often makes the car itself look quite average drawing more attention to its lack of shape such as in our case massive bland doors and 1/4 panels and a bonnet that is essentially a flat hunk of metal. Ends up giving it a sort of 2d/cheap look IMO

    In the end but modding cars is a personal thing. if you like it and we are all telling you its shit. Then tell us all to get fucked your doing it anyway, i wont be offended :)

    I was going to paint mine sunburst orange. Probably still going to do it, but I have the alltrac kit to break up alot of the lines on the lower part of the car.

    Was also going to two tone mine with a black roof, then break up the side with some black vinyls from Kevin on here.

    I like the orange idea, but mine will not be my daily, so I won't have to look at it everyday.

    Designing and making my own, it will have 4 functions
    a) Hold the 3 piece spoiler together and re-enforce it
    b) Front end downforce/stability
    c) The inner support will also form a radiator shroud
    d) Help supply more air to the newly modified air intake
