Reminds me of Eddie's Skyline a bit.

Seconded, especially with those rims on it, he had the same style on his.

 

I like it, I'd keep it. (Although the BayShore sticker kind of ruins it for me..)

kind of sucks that the guys that put on the body kit for me stuck that sticker on there like a prank and now I can't get it off!

I kinda like the Xenon Neon on it but it can't be shut off during the day. Second opinions?

Imo neon looks better with dark colours so I would leave it off on this.

[Khaisz]

Is the color close enough to the 2nd picture? or should I make some changes?

I'm using Lime Green with Dew Yellow

[owl-man]

Doing my Chino like this tomorrow, what wheels would you suggest to make it match?

Closest match is the Turbine in Low Rider category but the white wall is not that large, check that out.

[Towa]

What colour should I have on my Massacro?

 

A silver?

 

 

 

 

 

A yellow?

 

 

 

 

 

Or maybe Beachwood Brown with a Salmon Pink pearlescent? (Don't have any pictures of that colour, sorry!)

 

Or should I just stick with the colour I have right now? (Sea Green with a Racing Green earlescent)

 

 

 

 

Another question: I'm thinking of getting the wheels used in the pictures above, should I? I currently have the Obey RS wheels in black (from the SUV category, if I remember correctly)

 

[Gnocchi Flip Flops]

Get yellow with the wheels above.

[Aqua97]

Just some advice foe these two. Thanks

Change the blue maybe? The colors kind of clash imo

Closest you can get without a crew color I think.

[owl-man]

I've decided to go with chrome Super Fin wheels because Turbine ones have a deeper dish, gonna need someone to make a mockup of the Chino in case I feel like changing it.

I'm not sure how to style my Infernus. Should I add a spoiler or leave it without? Which one of these rims should I use? Should I add a black stripe secondary?

 

 

 

Also, thanks to Scaglietti for answering my previous question!

[owl-man]

I'm liking the first one more, I would add either a white stripe or a red one that's a shade darker than the primary. Keep the spoiler.

Black rims look better and I'd leave the spoiler.

The guys in the Rate My Car thread always give it 7-8/10's and I want to know why. My inspiration was the 300SL which has simple wheels, often in colors matching the paint job, and they look relatively simple. I looked at a few old Mercs and saw a lot of black ones. They looked badass especially for classics. So I made mine gloss black with simple wheels that are both chrome and black. Believe me, if I could make the hubs black and everything else chrome I would but that's not possible. I finished it off with an extra set of dual head lights.

 

I'm not for stancing European classics and I'm also not for those very tacky and cliché wired rims that everybody and their mother overuses on their classics. I went for a more simple and stealthy look but apparently it doesn't work for some.

 

Your thoughts?

You can't just expect a 9 or a 10 every time because you think it's good. Some people have different tastes.

Isn't that why I asked for thoughts on the looks? I came here for advice.

As I said in the rate the car above you thread, black looks good, but it just misses something. The car is completely black with chrome aspects and it's just misingn something. I would put that style on like a chino. I feel like you're trying it make it look really classy, but with use ass exhausts coming out of the side you can get a bit more risky with the paint job, and possibly wheels.

But as I said, try fully chroming the wheels, might look better.
