I probly should have mentioned my overall goal. I am looking to make the color scheme of the car silver, black/gunmetal/carbon and gold. I plan on taking the cage out and painting it gold along with the front/rear calipers and some underhood components and my battery box and nos bottle in the trunk. I have a carbon hood and trunk and soon to be roof(i know it just is for looks) and im painting my engine bay and trunk interior gloss black and redoing my rear seat and door cards in all black like the S202. what you think?

its only three colors. mostly silver and carbon just a few hints of gold and only black or gunmetal if i cant find the part in carbon. like the rims. misc brackets under the hood and the trunk interior because I have no trunk interior. and the whole interior is black except for my ver7 STI spec-c front seats which are black and blue but I really like them and dont wanna get rid of em

gun metal. NEVER goes out of style.


Black, eventually like spinners, will die out.

yeah its rhd. the interior is almost all S202 as well and im swaping in a 6-speed and EZ30R as soon as I have all of it built for the power I want to run.

sometimes I wish it were white because well white is just sooo classy but I donjt have the funds to paint the whole car the way I would want it done. (acid dipped, all bodyworked fixed not bondo'd, lighten and strengthen the chassis as much as possible, and then respray the whole car Bright f*in white) but like I said I dont have the finds for that due to my engine and drivetrain build. so silver will have to do haha
