I was going to change them out to gold but I think it would look too much like a Lakers car.

Wow, that is very very unique. Usually I would hate purple, but that actually looks pretty good.

Definitely an interesting color choice but I'd have to say it is nicely executed throughout the car. I'd suggest a few changes though:

- Replace blue Samco hoses to maybe black or if they make them, purple. The blue doesn't seem to go with the purple theme.

- Color match or polish the base mounts of your strutbar. It's currently blue & I feel it sticks out like a sore thumb.

- Get a polished plenum.

- Your car may look pretty good with some taillight overlays. I think tinting it will match better with the overal theme to your car & will compliment your wheels. The red taillights seem to draw your eyes to much to that direction.

Nicely done overall!

Sorry, not feeling the colour. If it was brickyard before, you should have kept it that colour if you wanted a good shade of purple. The brickyard had little specks in it that changed colours in the light which made it cool. That new purple looks flat and cartoony.

Sorry I couldn't find anythign positive to say, just my opinion.

EDIT: wait, nice rims.

Now...

I know the color isn't for everyone but hey its my car. The car was Z red before and was hit twice last year (not my fault).

I had two other project cars a red Scion XA and a red Toyota Celica. That They were totalled and accident were also not my fault.

I wanted something no one has done to try to break the curse.

Keep the comments coming good or bad.
