Black rims with a polished edge would do the trick i think ;) Some fender falres and spacers for the wheels aswell :D
oh its the other one, so u both went w. the wild green color? I thought you were trying to be unique and out-of-the-ordinary with the color? Two of the same cars w. the same color defeats that goal don't you think?

Maybe you guys have me confused with...Originally Posted by WarmAndSCSI
....i mean something more elegant. Reserved. Beautiful but not loud...
The TSW rims looks great 8) But TSW has 2 factorys and of the factorys produce some cheap and low quality rims :evil:
Overall I dont think the car is bad, looks coo, but needs some refining. Here's what I think should be done, some have been said, but I just want to cover all the bases.
-Color is not that bad, its a little loud and outside the box, but it is an attention getter. If thats what you wanted, well thats what you got.
-Fix the front bumper, swap out the grill, paint mesh black, round fog lights in bumper.
-Wheels are fine, could always be better, but even as a fan of Chrome, it would contradict the theme of this car. Wouldnt look right. Change the wheels last if it floats ur boat. They're workable.
-CF trunk will look good once installed. Maybe even the CF Roof would be a nice addition to tone down the green a lil bit.
-The Blue calipers and drums, dont match the car. Try another color. To me any car with rear drums should just paint them black. Just doesnt look right painted any other color.
-The sideskirt: has a gap in the rear by the door where it ends on both sides. Try to fill that or make it flush.
-The rear lip: with those screws visible by the wheel it makes it look bad. Try to cover those up also.
-Taillights: I just wont like those regardless of CF or Chrome, but that is my taste. I think tinting a set of USDM tails, or JDM tails would look better. Would flow with the black/green theme.
Thats my list, overall you have a good start, just need to button it up. Dont leave it half-ass, and start on the engine bay when you havent completed the outside first. Keep up the good effort and you'll be fine.
aww man I was expecting some purple :cry:
see you in april
nice whip... i like the color just gotta tweak the details a lil bit
when is we gon be free????
to fix this problem you will need to get the triangles that go on the rear doors. I had that gap when my sidekirts were 1st installed, and then when I had the car in the shop last summer I decided to let them add the triangles and it looks much better.Originally Posted by IVORY_G
here are the triangle pieces on my car
I like how it turned out. Definitely a head turner. I agree with the others about painting the mesh in the bumper black rather than green, mine used to be silver and now they are black, and also like Reelax said paint the radiator support and everything else that you see through the mesh black as well. The tails would look better USDM or JDM tinted. I have a set of USDM that are black, 'cept for the reverse lights that I am trying to sell if you are interested. The CF trunk will definitely set the car off nicely, and maybe some rims that are black with a polised lip.
nice picture jay, where did you get your side skirts from?Originally Posted by mrjaydeeone
i think he means where did you buy them.
yeah I am sure that's what he means. And I got them with my bodykit I bought the kit off a member on here that didn't need it anymore. They are from VIS you can get them direct from them, or you can find them on EBAY, and I believe there might be a few members on here that might have the sideskirts for saleOriginally Posted by dknight3

Indeed, I really see what he is saying about the 'Cuda color... but a Galant isn't a Barracuda, just my honest opinion. A friend of mine had his Civic painted in Lamborghini green and I thought it was a hideous color for that car as well. Sometimes it's impossible to undermine the color choices made by high-end automotive designers.
