...but it gets the idea through. i did these minor mods in MS Paint :-]

background behind it: i got new rims (as seen in my showcase) which have some okay quality all seasons wrapped around them, but i was never able to sell my old 7 spoke aluminum stock rims. i´ve decided to paint them (they´re majorly chipped/scratched up), and black, white, or gold (like scoobies) were in my thoughts. white i´m kinda ixnay-ing on because it wouldn´t be good with my caymen-green/teal color, but black is looking pretty sweet (even from my poor quality pics here ;-) ) i popped on some clear corners for the heck of it too :-]

the pics are in 640x480, but look better even smaller, my digi cam 5uX0r5, and this was the best i could do for the first time ever trying something like this, and given only MS Paint to do so.

so enough of my rambling, time to unveil:

BEFORE

AFTER clear corners

AFTER AFTER clear corners, black-ish stock 7 spoke rims

let me know what you think!

also, i have a request: if someone would be so kind (and if you have the time), could you take the first clear corners pic and make the rims gold, scoobie style? (still 7 spoke ones), and, if possible with the angle and such, put an WRX hood scoop on? (this is quite optional, it´ll be a long time till i do that) thxs in advance to anyone! :-D

I´m not that crazy about the black wheels, but that´s just me I guess.
Personally I think they would look a lot better on your car in white, or maybe gold.

If I had a black GT, this is what I would do. (pay attention siragan ;-) ) Tint the windows 35%, put on headlight covers, AVS rain guards, Black Enkei rims, paint the brake calipers Red, and then take off the orange/red reflectors on the back of the car...in other words... Completely black out the car. i get nervous when I pull up to cars like this. I love the look of it though... makes me feel like I´m going to get my ass kicked in a race. :-]

lol james, though that would be sweet, as long as the rear is smooth after the reflectors are off. i´d also add very thin neon green pinstriping too.

but anyhoo, i did some more MS Paint-ing during my work lunch hour, and here´s the result:

Already got the AVS rainguards
Tinting comes this summer when I fix the rust
Rims I´ll probably never do... sorry too expensuv

Plan on painting the calipers sometime this summer
Plan on tinting all the lights on the car, along with my BMW E36 angeleye conversion

Tinted lights on a black car looks pimp, and yes, I will do this. Everything will be a shade of black

I´ll even come down to Ft wayne to kick yer ass :-]
