Silver Member Username: J_baby15Kentucky Post Number: 266 Registered: Feb-06 | I agree with rob on sum 150s, that'd b lookin right. But I think killer is trying to keep it lookin more like a muscle car. Nice lookin ride tho. I think the front end looks kinda plain tho, you should check out a new grill, but thats JMO. |

Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, Or U.S. Post Number: 1045 Registered: Oct-05 | i like that color. On the road on a nice day i bet that thing stands out from a mile away. you guys who say it doesnt look good need to see some decent muscle cars because the preferred color us either black, yellow or red. When you got a nice car if its a ferrari, etc, you want it to stand out from the rest, so i like the color and the rims... nice job! |

Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 3955 Registered: Oct-05 | very nice. i bet the engine sounds mean dude. i actually like the color. maybe if you put some black stripes on the side it might look better. i agree with jordan on the grill. if you get a nice custom made one it would just be a killer. |

Silver Member Username: MixmastaspigCanada, Canada Canada Post Number: 674 Registered: Sep-05 | I'm a fan of Yellow, so I dig it. Very rad nice clean looking car. Dont take all the negatives here to heart, most people are driving 89' Tempos and what not. |

Bronze Member Username: Livin_loudNy Post Number: 56 Registered: Jan-06 | Mean car killer. I'll just repeat what was said above about a grille, because that would really set the car off. I think a billet aluminum would look best. I like the color too, I'll bet you see that coming from way down the road. The black stripes give it great accent. NOS as well? Well, now its getting ridiculous haha. For a highschool kid, I don't think it gets too much better... |

Gold Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 5984 Registered: May-04 | I'd probably do the hood old school black (semigloss or flat black). Maybe some black pinstriping on the sides. Instead of the yellow I'd repaint the car in Grabber Orange, though. Still catches your eye, but IMO looks better. I wouldn't do billet grill, though, I'd go with the black grill and maybe put the vacuum headlights on it if you could find any. I like having a chunk of rubber there, though. I'd have gone with a bit smaller rims and some huge fat tires under it. But I'm older, so that influences my decisions  Nice looking car. |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 7806 Registered: Jul-05 | well i actually like ur ride - has a good overall matching look !. Personally i agree wuth Jonathan in that i too like 2 see some rubber around my rims i dont like those skinny @ss low profile tires on my ride (though i admit it looks ok on other ppl's cars) . Those thin tires make ur car ride less smoother & u feel road uneveness ALOT more than thicker tires . I recently went from 195/50/15 to 205/60/15 & my car rides a ton more smoother/comfortable & i never have 2 worry about running over any blemishes on the road's surface .... |
