Final thread before hitting the paintbooth

[BlackMachDown]

As you guys know I've been accumulating parts for the red GT and even did a mock up of how she'll look, well Next friday if all goes well and according to plan I will be taking my car to get painted!

so the parts list-
cobra front
smoked headlights
s281 wing
old school GT badges

now the hard part that i cant decide...

this is the look im going for

now i cant decide if i want to do gloss black or satin black stripe on the hood and front bumper...
now depending on that should I do gloss black or satin black rims
and when we head to the rear
should i do the saleen spoiler red to match or the gloss or satin black and the taillights painted red with the light part smoked, or have that satin/gloss black

here are some pics for reference

help a fellow stanger out !

Imo the hood stripe should be gloss black, the spoiler should also be gloss black, get some black saleens also with more of a glossy finish and finally lower that thing and I hope your painting the mirrors as well.

haha, I'd go just the opposite. A friend of mine had a Mach with Satin black hood stripe like you've got pictured and spoiler, looked awesome. Got any pics of the GT badges you're going to use?

 

[BlackMachDown]

I love the look your going for BTW


I think you should go gloss hoos stripe, gloss wheels, red saleen wing, and gloss or flat taillight bezels.

it'll look sick

that first car dose look sick as hell, as far as how low it is.

I would suggest painting your taillights back to the regular color and painting the wing regular color, then getting the stripe gloss black with gloss black rims.

i like glossy muhself....i'd color match the wing i think...but i'm morally opposed to wings...even on cars...its cruel

but our cars look stupid without them if they're not lowered with rims or something.

i still havent figure out a suspension that will let me ride that low!...maybe srthandz's setup would look good
on my car the front has eibach prokit, and the rear is half coil cut springs...so suspension is next on my todo list then its save save for turbo kit

his is just sportlines with no iso's you could probably but 1/2 coil off sportlines and it would look like it was on the ground lol
