So, I decided to listen to a lot of people and tried to change up a bunch of things.

Heres the list:


Put on rims and tires
Painted Grey trim to gloss black
Removed head light covers and painted design on with gloss black
re-tint at 20% all around
Painted back tail covers
extended underbody wires
removed side window vinyl
De-badged all but the shields


at that point, we ran out of time. I was hopefully to have some louvers made, but at 2am the night before I left for MN, we decided we should pass till I head back home to try it.



heres some pics:

 

I definately like the change. Good work. The headlights look awesome and the wheels where a good choice.

 

 

Well done, Vita...has a really aggressive look to it. Did you get your taillight covers from PFYC? I ordered mine from there. I am a little disappointed with them. For $50, I guess I just thought that they would be more precisely crafted. Instead, they came in a package that looked like I picked them up in the clearance bin at Pepboys. No worries, though. I am about to paint mine body colour to match before I put them on. I also cut out the slats to open them up.

 

Im not too sure about the center caps yet, the rims need some work. I got them really cheap from a kid who tried to spray them and bloched them up, so Ill be sanding and re-spraying them when I get some time. (wont be for a while im sure college + incoming winter will delay, especially out here in fargo now. ) I did get the tail covers of pfyc, and i must agree, i though they would be a bit better. my headlight covers before were even worse, hence why I scrapped them and did what i did with this. I was thinking of painting to match also, but, my car seemed to have WAY too much red and I needed a way to break it up. I soon hope after I sell enough plasma (seriously... sad i know) to paint the top part, hood to truck, black to give it a 2 tone look.

 

Lolz. How much is plasma going for these days?

 

Instead of painting the entire top part black, how about black rally stripes on the hood, roof and trunk?

Another idea...

Paint the "teeth" in the lower grill black. I've seen it done on a Dale Jr edition on another forum. Makes the front bumper look good.

 

i get about 210 a month if I donate often. Its not much, but itll add up. as for the paint, I love cool designs of 2 tone paint, and with the black trim, plus a black top, I think it will come together nicely. I dont wanna make the car real tacky. the big problem I have with racing stripes is, well, my car cant race! its like me dropping an SS badge on it, it wouldnt be right!
