not sold on the orange - it's out of the box thinking, though. time to paint the bumper, that will help!
its more red-ish then orange, just shows orange with my cell phone more.
color is rally red to be exact

ehhh its a cool idea but i don't think the pewter pulls it off too well. its not terrible but its just not meshing right.

It might be the blue lights - too many colors. I want to see it in person, might be much cooler live.

You really don't want anybody who knew your car to recognize you, do you? :mrgreen:

yeah i figured that cause of the long license plate holder area and the export tails i like, but something about that rear bumper that just doesnt hit me well.

Very sneaky hatch pins ;)
Did you by any chance do a weight comparison?

Not feeling the orange-ish color but the concept looks good. I would have used a matte black finish instead.

I can dig it on that Camero...but I think it needs something that color on the sides to complete the effect. Maybe like the SS letters or a Bowtie or sumthin'.

not bad, but would be alot better on a white/black car. Who made those Paul?

maybe outline the orange with black. that would give the stripes some contrast.

that's what i originally thought too along with tying other things into the color theme but i just don't think the pewter can pull it off.

It's this color people...my stripes show up more orangey when the photo is taken in the sun as well.

what brand / type of head lights are those?
The bumber needs paint to finish the look, might camaro letters on the filler panel in the same color as well as the SS grill pull it all together? I like it.

i dono. might work. maybe if the manta just had the same extra outline stripe like the hatch stripe.

I dont like the orange too much with the pewter. Not colors that were meant to go together in my opinion. I do like the design of the stripe on the hood, not on the hatch. With pewter I'd recommend a darker color...maybe a dark red, brown, dark grey, black, dark green. It could be something to play around with
The export tailights and bumper are awesome though

Stated several times in this thread that it is red, not orange. Camera phones are FTL when it comes to accurate color reproduction.

Wheels need a pin the same color around the lip. I think that would really pull it together.

10-10-2009, 09:17 AM
not a big fan at all..good idea but I just dont see it working
I dig it. If it were my car, I would throw a black insert on the SS hood as well. Then I would do the calipers the same color as the stripes to tie the color more into the scheme. Very different if I must say :nod:

I like it and I think it will come together more when the rear bumper gets painted. I also think you should paint the SS emblems that same red.
