That look spretty good I think you should have painted hte body kit to match the car.

it really difficult with those picturethere is litle contrast between the pavement and the kittake a brighter picture

Ok now that I look at it more, I think it looks bad@$$, It is like a grayscale, white to gray to black

I'll get some better pictures - it's kind of hard to tell the pavement andglare and all...I agree...And thank you Merzbow...It's not set in stone gonna stay that way...we'll see what the future holdsfor it... It's definitely gonna get some drop springs next month...Thanks for the input guys...

So you aren't going to paint everything so it's at least 2 tone?

bud_one · Post by **bud_one** » Wed Apr 20, 2005 6:54 am

Not yet...at least...I kind of like it like it is...in a twisted kinda way...

So you actually paid hard earned money for it to look like that? lolSorry if that sounds harsh but darn!

Cool,but maybe is good to find something to much more the color.He,maybe you are the savier,the chosen one to give hope for the owner of two-tone with the body kits.

If you would get the bare cladding painted black and have a black and white Vibe, that would look nice.Yeah, it's not really my cup of tea, either... The three different colors is a bit much, IMHO, especially since the contrast between the cladding and the kit doesn't really seem to be too great, thus making it hard to see the difference. I would paint the kit white to match the rest of the car, and make the look be like the salsa 2-tone with the kit, which was pretty cool looking. JMHO, though...it's your car...you're the one who has to like it.

It was going to be thrown away... I didn't have to pay for it... It's not going to stay that color forever...I think white is the way to go withit...Painting the gray clading would be a little more difficult than painting the body kit...

drunkenmaxx · Post by **drunkenmaxx** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 12:53 am

i would leave it two tone and just paint the kit portion white!

bud_one · Post by **bud_one** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 1:02 am

That's probably what I'm gonna end up doing...

Mr. Poopypants · Post by **Mr. Poopypants** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 1:20 am

Well if you got it for free, I wouldn't complain at all.

bud_one · Post by **bud_one** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 2:57 am

That's why I like it....

hey cuz...i think it looks good! it kinda grows on you. when we first put it on, it was just "aight" but as the day went on, it started to look better and better.it def. looks better in person.

bud_one · Post by **bud_one** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 1:07 pm

Yes, it looks better in person .... Ghetto phabulous..

Thats a $3000CAD add on at the dealership and you got it free? Not bad but I'm going to have to agree with people about the three tone look. Now if you painted the cladding black to match then Oh yeah.

AKLGT · Post by **AKLGT** » Thu Apr 21, 2005 3:22 pm

free is good, but just because it was, doesn't mean it looks good. like others have said, if you don't paint the cladding, at the very least paint the kit to match. there was a vibe a the sema show that was salsa, 2 tone cladding and a salsa body kit. actually looked very nice.

Free is free. But you gotta do somthing with the bodykit. Paint it the 2 tone grey i think it would look good.
