thinking about painting..
 
thinking about painting the sail panels on the ta, maybe even along with the mirrors, ive seen it on ls1tech and it looked good, especailly because i have 5% tint..what do you guys think?

Italian Stallion 03-05-2012 06:44 PM

oh, and i finished the ceta mod and i have the blackout taillight covers along with the black pontiac lettering filled in.

MyFirstZ 03-05-2012 06:49 PM

Sail roof panel or the sail panels ?

And I'm assuming black. If you are talking about the roof and mirrors black then yeah I would. I love that look on a non black fbody. I saw one guy that also did the spoiler black that I think looked sick

yeah haha my bad:facepalm:.. but yeah, i saw one with the the raised part of the wing black too. i think itll look really good. just dont want the wing to be too tacky.

Your car looks really clean as is, I would leave it. Sail panel if you do, not the mirrors.

Thanks man. and yeah thats what im trying to decide.

Id do CETA, Sail Panel and MAYBE the bottem of the Wing. ive seen some pics of it with the WS6 spoiler and it looked good. Me and Adam did our SS wings like that...

i did the ceta, and i think im going to do the sail panels. do you have pics of the wing?

MyFirstZ 03-05-2012 08:54 PM

The wing I saw was on an old forum it was an lt1 but still same wing.

If you wanna keep it clean it clean do the roof. You can buy black mirrors and keep the white if you don't like it

not a bad idea at all. and i googled a couple and some from ls1tech came up and they do look pretty good.

Saw it done (black under wing) on an som t/a that also had black tails and ceta. IMO, too buch black. Everything but under the wing looks good

cant find any pics with it under the wing, but thats what i was thinking. the wing would be too much.

Jersey Mike 03-05-2012 11:34 PM

I much prefer the white sail panel, white mirrors, white spoiler, and black CETA bumper. If you really feel like adding something, maybe some blackbird stripes. Here's a rough chop to give you an idea. You can get a moderate idea of the contrast in person using a $6 can of PlastiDip--Spray it on, let it dry, peel it right off.

damn..im not sure i like how it looks in that picture.

usp55 03-06-2012 07:08 AM

leave it

maroman88 03-06-2012 08:03 AM

yea leave it white, if u need more black accents get some black decals for the 'pontiac' on the headlight cover, and 'trans am' on the doors, and some vinyl stripes, much easier to reverse when u get bored of it

thats a really hit or miss modd. Some of those cars look more like sunfire's and the wht lt1 looks like a Probe IMO. Maybe thats just the angle of the pics IDK.

Kind of like the orange one though

sweetbmxrider 03-06-2012 12:03 PM

Yeah, the som was the only one that I really didn't mind. Still think pontiacs look better body color though.

LS1ow 03-06-2012 01:58 PM

that SOM makes me want to do mine

Italian Stallion 03-06-2012 04:57 PM

yeah, i dont know about painting it anymore. deff going to de moulding it, and going to spray the trans am black. even looking into getting into a new black set of rims.

Italian Stallion 03-06-2012 04:59 PM

i think the black under the wing looked realll sharp on the last silver one.

WayFast84 03-07-2012 08:03 PM

I've actually decided to do it. I'll either plastidip it gloss black or wrap it with vinyl. I'll post pics for you.

NjbadSS 03-07-2012 08:22 PM

your car looks fine, LEAVE IT ALONE, just my .02.

MyFirstZ 03-07-2012 08:22 PM

That third picture is exactly what I would want my T/a to look like...........if i had one

I do like the black on the underwing also
