Cool Check This Out!

Ok everone give me your honest opinion on this. Ok I'm thinking on getting some body work done on my RS and getting it paited orange. I did a pic of what it might look like in an Adobe program. Here it is.



So what do you think?

Honestly? Ugg, I don't quite know what to say. It is an interesting idea, but that picture puts a bad taste into my mouth. It would look better in any other color I think. A metalic orange might be better...

That is definitely unique... I like it. But I'm not sure about the orange.. maybe a different shade of orange would look better. IMHO, orange is too ricey.. I would stick with a neutral color. Your car would stand out as it is anyways.

Well the color isn't going to be that orange, i'm going to get the stock sedona red pearl covered with a gold or yellow pearl. which will give it a orange metallic golden look or something like that.

For this front elevation view I'd try to "play" with the line the front of the hood makes... As it is now it just messes with the balance.
After that I'd pitch the cash for some mirrors that suck up against the doors...

The way you pulled that rib up in the center of the grill just says Sunfire too me. Wether thats good or not is up to you.

ImprezedRS,

I think the color should be the least of your worries

Let's just say the lines are not pleasing my eyes at all.

Cheers,
Marco

Get a turbo with all that money. It's more fun spanking hondas than trying to look like one.

Does the bodywork come with a TV show on TNN featuring the car and its mysterious driver?

I like the original. But I would not paint over everything. I like the middle spike. It goes well with the grille and hood scoop.

I think he is trying to get away from the "Looks just like everyone else" theroy.

Thumbs up

The 2nd one's openings in the grill and bumper area are too wide open.
I think the 1st one look nice . Go for it!

But for me , it doesn't have enough functionality...intake for ram-air, or brake vents. I like something that looks a certain way because of the functioning features.
