VERY NICE work...

unispotters are the shit...

still a while from the final paint, i am planning to paint it lightning blue which is similar to electron blue but cheaper i guess. . . and then lay white rally style stripes assuming it won't look weird since the hood is alot wider than the roof, i want to accentuate the wideness of the car though.

I love that unispotter it made the job so easy.

lay white rally style stripes

Man.. don't do that

 

[jimboburgess]

i want to offset all the blueness some how

 

[eg6sir]

thats a big negative on the racing stripes....though i've heard they add 25 hp

 

[Seany-izzle]

no, for the love of god do NOT put rally (racing) stripes on your car. id just leave it blue with the white wheels.... that is if you plan on keeping them white, andi hope you change your mind lol. oh, and that car isnt really that wide. maybe some small white pinstripe down the side... i dunno, just a suggestin if youre stuck on putting white on it somewhere.

 

[jimboburgess]

OK. . . fine no stripes, how about i paint on the honda badges in white, rather than using the emblem.

 

[YouKnowWhoIBee]

paint the rims.... white isnice but gets dirty quickly

 

[jimboburgess]

i can paint them down the road but at this point i am planning on sticking with white rims

a good pinstriper can lay down some nice lines that would look good

see this is my view, and my view only... i think thre is such a thing as too much white, and too much trying to incorporate a different color. Im not a fan of multi color cars, faded cars, two tone and all that shit. You want more white to break up all the blue??? Look at b's old sol, all that blue, and it looks damn good too. Too much white all over your car will bring the wrong attention, yes something as simple as painted emblems will bring more attention from other rice-racers lol. i dunno if you want that, but id say leave em the silver they are or just take em off completely. thats my 2 sense.

 

[jimboburgess]

yeah, stripes might be, too much. I can get originality with the front end conversion.
I wasn't just going to paint the emblems i was going to tape out the H and paint it on the car, i think chrome looks cheap.

Heres a refrence pic of B's old/ my new sol.

I plan on repainting it this winter and putting on a ex front lip. Thats all for the body mods.

if you want racing stripes, put racing stripes. don't let other people bully you into not doing something like that
