yea i think u should paint them to match as well.. Its like when u see guys driving around with their unpainted body kit.. I get the same kind of feeling when i see the black fender flares.. I like the two tone with the roof though..

i got the same hood, is ur roof,a pillars and hatch carbonfiber? if not should do that... and if you could find someone to maybe wrap ur fender flares in carbon fiber that wud be tite.

actually im lookin at it again.. Just paint the whole car the same color as the fender flares.. I think it would look nice that way.. not a big fan of Lemans.. i think if you painted it all the gunmetal lookin color on ur flares the car would look really aggresive

It's certainly extreme. I guess if you like it, it's worth it. IMO, when you can barely distinguish what car it is, it's gone too far.

I'm not digging the 2-tone scheme. Everyone has different tastes but I'd go with 1 color and a pearl shift, something like silver with a baby blue pearl.

That kit looked horrible on that car you originally posted, but the way you have yours painted, the CF, the wheels, omg dude you did an awesome job! It looks great, one question, what size rear tire is that? It looks like it isnt filling the wheel well, and on a widebody you wanna make sure to fill them up! Other then that, lovin it!

Thanks man.

The wheels are 20" Axis Matrix wheels. They look like that cause the coilovers are as high as they can possibly go so I could get into the audio shop(big ramp).

The coilovers have saved my life as far a ground clearance goes!!!

Like the kit itself
Like the "idea" of the 2 tone
Don't like the fenders painted
Don't like that the gas door paint line doesn't match with the fenders that I already don't like
Don't like that the mirrors are above the 2-tone line yet are still Lemans instead of gray
Don't like the paint line transition from the front bumper to past the headlights

JMO...but this is how I personally would have it painted. But whatever you scheme you go with...kudos for doing something different

The fenders definately should be hit with LeMans. The way they are now totally narrows the car.

Hahaha! That's pretty much exactly like how I recommended it earlier . I agree it would look so much better that way or at least something along the lines of. After seeing the rear though, it may look better if he takes the gray portion over from the bottom of the taillights & carries that line over to that same area we both agreed on on the headlights. Everything above that will be gray.

I'm on the fence. I can appriciate the amount of work put into making this car happen... but.. I guess I just dont like the lines of the kit itself.

Props for going with something different, and as long as you are happy with it.. its all that matters.

I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to say that's just plain ugly. This is my opinion which you asked for so don't get mad.

I definitely don't like the orange contrasting with black. Why not blue/black, red/black, white/black, yellow/black etc? Also, just because you have CF, doesn't mean you have to show it. You could paint the whole car some metallic color with lots of pearls or flakes. I would at least get rid of the orange and the ugly black on the fender flares.

It's actually not black...it's a very flaky graphite. The pics were all taken with a 1.3 megapixel camera phone....thanks for the comments tho!
