Question Something different

Wassup guys

Just got the car out of shop, wanted to post some crappy iphone pics Liquid Platinum FTW (w. sum Carbon Fibre & iCe)

Prototype (very baddd chop) lol





Under the knife



Some really bad garage shots when i get her home











Finished Result (sorry will getting some good res shots next!) maybe need to hit up gene (kyosho)




like i said, something different.

I have been a member here for over 3 years, and this is my first time posting pics of my car. Rear is not fully done just yet. Ings+1 is molded I have so many ppl to thank for giving me ideas and for that i am very grateful to the community. Hope you liked my G

If not, thats ok you are entitled to your opinion, but at the end of the day its my car

My only real gripe is the wheels. Other than that, looking pretty good.

sweet, but too much light going on. take off the city lights, the yolk yellow is ugly and useless. maybe your sidemarkers too. it will look cleaner and aggressive with just the HID and fogs on. you also should have put the fogs across the bottom instead of the top. other then that, clean G.

delete the corner lights and go HID on the city drivers. Overall, not bad at all!

Love the colour scheme. All the lights -- not so much.

Hey guys, mate blk headlights next molded ings+1 rear is done and trunk is going on next month. You have to see the rear to appreciate the paint scheme, it completes the look i wanted to achieve for this car. leds are just for fun, i can take em off anytime but i get a lot of compliments, u can spot this car miles away cuz of it lol

Wheels & Suspension mods are definitely coming later, some volks or works with //o--o\\

^ it is very subtle and only noticeable in pitch dark. the leds are hidden and you only see a bluish glow effect underneath. it turns on only when you unlock/open the door.

car looks decent. hood paint scheme and wheels could be better but not horrible. agreed the lights are all over the place - too many colors.

i am rocking these wheels for now until i am fully done with the exterior mods. will definately be getting new wheels and suspension at that time, but thats in the future.

the paint scheme-i wanted to paint it in a way that leaves as much cf exposed, but also offeres something unique and goes with painted vents. i pondered painting the hood but leaving the vents as-is, but a lot of ppl have done this already. and the ways its painted now allows for flexibility because the painted vents option that can be implemented anytime :-)

also most importantly, this paint scheme goes hand in hand with the partially painted MG2 trunk
