Would you roll this?

I know this isn't my car, but it's the same model, and I hope it's okay that I used it as a base for this photoshopping I did.

I was just wondering if anyone else thinks this would be a cool looking 1st gen, 'cause I think I'm gonna do this to my car eventually.



P.S. I can't photoshop for crap, maybe someone could touch it up some? (And thanks to 1stand3rd for putting pics of his car on the web so i could download them and edit them. `,=o))

Well, he tinting is bad, but the color isn't horrible. My G/f saw it and said she'd drive it. I would prefer to stick to black though.

Well I've decided that I'm gonna do that to my car.

The inspiration comes from a matchbox Porsche I used to have that had orange windows and a green body. The paint I get probably won't be as bland, I want something more shiney and pretty.

`,=o) Now all I need is money.

That green is wayyyy to bright. Darker, felix! Darker! Same with the tint.
And I want the rims only to be green on the X part, not the outer edge.

Ok, that color is OK, but keep the trim around the windows and the molding black...and leave the wheels alone!

Oh yea, Some cars look sweet with matching rims. My TA will have matching color rims (someday) and NOTA V6's 85 Se looks phat with wheels that match his car (both white) but the green looks odd with matching wheels. IMO

go with a dark british racing green. it looks classy on a sports car like the 7. Get aftermarket 15 inch wheels and paint them body color. Leave the gold tint, it might be illegal, it is in Texas.
