Very cool look, you should paint your car so it always looks like that. Looks like a DeLorean that has just exceeded 88mph.

Some new photos are actually coming soon. I just mounted my winter wheels (with Blizzaks) today. I weighed the summer vs. winter wheel/tires, and see that I have lightened my total load by about 40 pounds! That's probably the opposite of what I want to do in the snow, but I'm looking forward to seeing how they perform on cold dry roads. The winter wheels look quite a bit more stealthy than the factory stock wheels, but still have silver accents. I like the look, and am not sure now whether I actually like them better than the stock rims.

As for my pinstripes... believe it or not, those are not actually pinstripes on my car. They are wide silver stripes, with slightly narrower gloss black stripes laid down on top of them. I drove the car around with just the silver stripes for a couple of days while I was waiting for the black vinyl to arrive, and got a lot of looks... but I think they look better now.

That got a big chuckle out of me too.

Yeah I have no problem with that. His looks plain to me. Like I said, to each his own. That's all.

And obviously some people can criticize a car but when I voice my opinion about their car they get all butthurt and reply with a snobby remark. Just uncalled for and immature in my opinion.

Earlier in the thread after you first posted, I posted and kinda feel that I had your back somewhat, and then you attack the looks of my car after I suggest you keep going with the removal of the huge lettering off the side of your car, something that originally was recommended by just about everybody that was critiquing your look.
So yeah, I felt somewhat back-stabbed, and threw up a wise-*** comment. It happens.

That actually does look quite a bit better. I say, drive it around like that for a week or two and see if it grows on you.

Personally, I'd remove it if it were my car, but it would be a shame to give on it too quickly, given how much trouble it was to apply.

Hmm not sure about the lettering, would need so see the rest of the car. Cause it looks like your vents are white too, so kinda like a white/black theme, but i can't tell. Also sometimes things look better in person than in pics. Like the 2015 for example


But as for the hashmarks, I definitely agree, get rid of them lol

I am cringing pretty hard that I can't wash it. Supposed to jump to the mid 50s from the 20 it was this morning tomorrow so I will be able to clean her.

And yes it is! 2012 with the N/A 427. Not mine btw, took that up at work.

This is why I went and got my snowshoes put on today.

Very true. My fiance and I were looking for one. We both went to the same high school where the color was marron and gold. The mascot was the Bees. We were gonna try and fine a Ruby Red car, add some gold trim/striping and tell our class mates to be careful and not get "Stung by our Bee Stang" LOL Yes, I DO know how cheesy that is.

Young love I guess.... or Olde Farte™ love maybe, considering that we are both 50.

We opted for a Race Red one instead because it was almost new, and a good buy. I don't regret it...much.
