WeeYari · 03-09-2011, 02:50 PM

A bit too white for my liking. Why did you leave the black triangles in front of the mirrors?

blacks · 03-09-2011, 03:07 PM

LOL, yeah I knew that. I meant what you should change (now that your car is super white) is your username.... never mind...

blacks · 03-09-2011, 03:21 PM

@Cali Yaris lol yea now i understand what you where trying to say lol

blacks · 03-09-2011, 03:23 PM

@Imagine Well no i have to carry it back so that he can do that and some more work on it for me and i'll take pic of it when he does ok

WeeYari · 03-09-2011, 03:27 PM

^ you mean that it wasn't a white car to begin with?

I thought the work done was basically to monochrome her. Door pillars, grills, etc.

That's up to you. If the car was black to begin with you can get away with a black engine bay, etc if it's done correctly. I was just wondering, I dont know what your car looked like before.

blacks · 03-09-2011, 03:41 PM

WeeYari It was always white

CTScott · 03-09-2011, 03:56 PM

I kind of dig it. You should go the rest of the way and paint the emblems and badges white as well (or at least the front and debadge the rear).

blacks · 03-09-2011, 04:13 PM

@CTScott Thanks and i'll see what i do concerning the badges not a bad idea

cali yaris · 03-09-2011, 04:37 PM

^ +1

+ white wheels

JumpmanYaris · 03-09-2011, 05:29 PM

Nice. But like someone said that black part in front the mirror

SAV912 · 03-09-2011, 07:01 PM

Is the silver in the keyholes of the doorhandles painted white as well? Geez.

I'm all for monochrome as much as the next guy, but some angles look like somebody said "Ok, take a deep breath and just go nuts with the paint gun!" Mirrors at the very least would've stayed black if it were my car, but as long as you like it...

Tom48 · 03-09-2011, 08:24 PM

I think you need something a different color for contrast. Choose a color you like and do the grills, door handles and wheels. Blue, Red or what ever you like, but it's your car/money do what ever you like.

Thanks for all the comments so far guys
