Are you planning on keeping the tires tucked like that? It looks good as is but I think it's look better spaced out a little and not tucking?? Food for thought

car is aired out.. this cambering is what happens when they lay flat.. this is just what cars look like when youre not in the stance game.

we've already told you go with the flat black you have!


But if you will not, then I say.. diamond black! Diamond black! Diamond black! Diamond black! Diamond black! Diamond black! Diamond black! Diamond black! Diamond black! Diamond black! Diamond black! (charcoal color?)

Blue. Why would you want a grey that resembles so many other greys out there? While the matte brown is nice with a slight gold tinge to it, your car is so different, you need a color that's out of the norm as well.

Don't do charcoal, looks too similar to what you had. Time for a change to go with the new mods.

#1 = Brown
#2 = Charcoal
#3 = Blue

Would go a matte metallic red over all above though.

from a marketing standpoint.. black is not going to happen. I also already had black.
the charcoal color is simlar to other cars yes, buit my car itself isnt similar to anything..
the blue has some nice pop to it, but im afraid its too clownish.. i have like 4 colors on the car then aside from shades.. purpre titanium.. burnt titanium.. red.. blue.. gold calipers.. kind of crazy.


Im really in indecision tbh. Just dunno. But it has to be dark-ish.

Brown body and red wheels would clash, but brown and gold ain't too shabby...
