Is that for real? Not totally feeling it.
Think it needs a smaller something in the bottom right area of the hood to help give it weight and balance.

idk... i cant make up my mind. but if you like it then thats all that matters!:thumbsup:
I personally don't like it, but like others have said: it's your car. If you dig it, go for it!

No ideas at the moment. Been a long day/week. Creative juices aren't flowing.
It is such a large, highly stylized graphic. Hard to think of something that will work in harmony with it. Also had forgotten about your side graphic. Now I'm thinking the hood is too much.

Not my cup of tea.
But I'm more of a fan of understated, subtle mods.
But if you like it there, rock it :D

i have to say i wouldn't do it to my car, but i don't like more than one color on the outside of my car. i'm a fan of very simple. it does need a little something though. i almost wish it were bigger and wrapped over the side of the car right under the windshield. i think that would be pretty badass. you could find some kind of subtle design and take it off the hood a little. it'll bring your eye more around the car and into the lines of it and then along the side instead of just a smack right on the front. all in all it is your car though and i give ya credit for making it your own car. keep it up, you're off to a pretty badass start!

So what if i put a small "VVT-i" decal on the bottom right of the hood. would that help even it out?:iono:

I think that looks worse.
Just being honest. Sorry.
I think the side stripe looks good, if you do really want that Toyota wording in front, I would suggest to put it on top of the windshield.
If somehow the side stripe don't cross the driver/passenger door panel, and leave some room for that VVT-I to place below the side turning signal, it would be awesome.
Just my advise :thumbsup:

just put the "toyota" at the bottom of the hood straight across. and different font to go with style of your side stripes which i'm loving.
and just a quick aside but does anyone know how to write toyota in japanese? or does it even translate like that? sorry if that's a dumb question i was just kinda wanting some japanese on my car and couldn't think of anything better.

+1 for the windshield.
I think that would make the most sense, it looks kind of out of place on the hood, like there wasn't much thought about the placement, I also like the idea of the zdea of it wrapping from the hood over to the side, that could make things a little more interesting.
:D

indeed it is on wiki... sorry i asked i didn't think it would be that easy to find. lol. thanks.
It's a good idea to make the car stand out a bit more... Might just need to be adjusted a little. Very Kool!

+1 for being positive! lol. that was actually my goal with this. i personally love the way it looks and it does kinda set it apart from the rest.

Looks a little ricey at that angle, plus it seems to defeat the purpose of the car being all black IMO
A very smaller one on the center of the hod down by the bumper might look better, kinda like mine (see garage)

asian style letters never work on a car. ever
im also not a big fan of graphics on a car that has no extensive modification
but thats just my opinion. to each their own
not trying to be a debbie downer at all. just from my experience its never looked good on any car ive seen it on no matter where it is placed
props for trying it out though

your car kind of looks like that mario bullet in your signature. how about putting on a couple of eyes and arms to your lb. :headbang:

I honestly believe you should consider getting darker vinyl so that it blends in more with the color of your car. .02

^its actually a lot darker than it looks. it has a slight reflectiveness to it and the sun caught it a little. it kinda catches your eye when you pass by it.

I have to agree whith that.
While I might not like that graphic on the hood, it is not my car and it's only my opinion.
Having said that, I never did like are sort of graphic on a hood (except for an apropriate racing stripe) as it always looks oui of place, IMHO. :smile:

That looks better may have to take off the other stripe to make it look good.

Smoke your side signal. The white plastic on grey on black looks weird IMO.
