Thoughts anyone?


This is what my car should look like when I'm done.

personally ehh.
not a fan of the paint color, the fade or the graphics
if you're going for a fast and furious look you got it (but not my preference)
everything else looks good
do what you like!
if you're going to do two colors, how about a top and bottom half (ala Foose)

I think a flat black (or satin, eggshell, etc.) leading into a nice, vibrant paint color could look really cool... ...but I'd suggest talking to a really good bodyshop and getting more input on how best to achieve the fade or if there's another option. The concept has potential. As I said, I do like the satin fading into a vibrant color (that orange of the OEM IP). Might look best if the satin black appeared be what is underneath the paint (without exagerated peeling-paint graphics), instead of looking like the front was simply fogged over. Perhaps if it looked like the color was fading forward into the satin black that could achieve it.

I'm not a fan of the side graphics at all.

+1 on the satin fade

And NO on all the graphics! Especially broadcasting displacement and supposed HP numbers of all things! Keep it clean, the fade will look sweet if you get a great shop to paint it!

JDM V35 - I really hope you go through with the fade. I'd really like to see how it turns out. Too bad that orange isn't an OEM color, as you'd be wll on your way.

I'd really like to see how that would look on an IP.

yes you're right it for show. The graphics are only on for show. other wise it will look like the lower picture. Does anyone have anyother ideas on the graphics then? Since it's for show. What would you the people like to see?

the fade doesnt seem to have a purpose really....it doesnt equate to the lines of the car. if you could find a way to fade with the beauty of the lines i think it would look much better imho

+1 on the satin black

I've always wanted to see what a G looks like with flat/satin/eggshell paint job!

Love the fade...don't like the wheels too much...seems like they're are a lot "nicer" wheels out there.
