Gunmetal Midnight

[SHOtime3]

I'm picking my car up tomorrow from paint and wanted a couple of opinions. It's 2tone now with gunmetal slicers (the same scheme as superho's) but I'm trying to decide if I want a pinstripe between the two dark colors. Suggestions welcomed. BTW if I do a pinstripe that's what color I'll use in the SHO engravings.

Who has a blue front bumper for sale?

 

[SHOtime3]

bump. I'll post pics after I pick her up tomorrow.
I'm 100 now. yay

Need to see if it's flat or shiny...

Tim's car looked good with dull black paint and a shiny black pinstripe over the shiny red...

 

[SHOtime3]

It's shiny went there this morning and they said I can't get till tomorrow.

Here's a pic with my phone I'll take some with my cam after work. They forgot to paint the spoiler so I'll have it tomorrow. I'm still debating on the door handles (blue/gunmetal) a pinstripe and the color for the SHO letters.

Has that been cut and wheeled yet?

 

[SHOtime3]

Not yet.

I'd say door handles blue. Car looks nice

Hard to judge without some different pictures.

More pics!!!

 

[SHOtime3]

Here's a few pics I'll try to get some more pics when the sun comes back out or after work when I pick up the spoiler and clean her up from yesterdays rain.







I guess it's time to change my interior since I'm not going to use a lighter blue anymore.

at the begining of June the shop will get the front bumper (r33) to fit correctly. Still wondering if anyone has a Gen II front bumper cover for sale.

Looks great.

I'm so glad to see you went with the same line we did on Tim's car instead of following the body groove. I really like it alot although I'm not a fan if the whole trunk lid painted. We did the same thing and I kinda wish we would have taken the line up and under the spoiler. Other then that I really like it!!!

**EDIT** I agree the door handle's should be blue.. and not to be hater because I LOVE the car but I think maybe you should just back out the tail lights, I'm not a big fan of the "Euro" style

That's the line I originally wanted to follow but the trunk started pilling badly and I thought I'd see if there would look better with the tails the same color (the jury is still out).

Mabey its just me, but did they paint the rubber trim around the windows too?? I like the look, but i do agree about the tails and trunk.

 

[SHOtime3]

They did paint the trim which I doesn't bother me bc my trim was in need of replacement.

 

[dantheman68]

why dont you have any pics of the front bumper? i want to see how it fits...

oh, and go back to the stock taillights, i think it will look alot better

 

[hawkeye18]

holy rice-a-roni!

The tail lights look bad. The rest of the car looks pretty good. rice-a-roni comment directed at fartcan mufflers lol. I would highly recommend some niteshades for the tail lights in lieu of the eurotrash style.

o, and nice busted corner light!

 

[SHOtime3]

^^^ I have my roommate to thank for that corner. Sometimes you shouldn't let someone try the realty of SHO power.
Does anyone know the link to thread about factory colors and where to order it. I'm going to paint the bottom of the trunklid and door handles myself bc I want it done now instead of when my bumper gets done and the shop wil overcharge me due to amount of paint they will have to mix. Is there any paint remover/thinner I could use on the tails that would just remove the paint and not the tails or would have to try the headlight sanding technique?

They are not busted... Thats new new clear corners... :laugh_ti:
