crazy driver-
i just dont want any colors, i dont know why theyre either to flashy or too dull. i want something subtle but slick. so i ended up with white or black.
as a side note im getting the t2 s4 wing, is that good or does anyone have a bettr suggestion? i thought about getting the t2 hood, but i doubt i will. and do you think the rims will look ok with the white?

i donno gloss black is pretty nice looking, gets dirty hella hella fast though probably faster than white even.

the car is a silver/grey right now?? or is that white??
id say for simplicity use white as, then it wont be as noticeable thta you changed the colour, if you dont plan on painting the door jams and engine bay as well.

hey, is that an s5 motor? were all the emissions removed? man, your interior needs some work! and you might want to think about degreasing the engine bay!! dont forget to get all those dents removed! what color are you gonna paint your car???? lol j/k

nice work..... i see it isnt a full s5 swap, what did you actually convert? just curious..... nice work though! good luck with your project

its an s5 engine with an s4 front cover, so in reality everything is s4 but the engine internals are s5

White or black. Well if those 2 are the only ones you are interested in I would go black. But if it was me and my car I would go with the skylineblue blue I choose. This pic is photoshopped and thats what it should look like when it gets out of paint.
