I'd personally make it gray and tint it a little, maybe even add a spoiler.

When modifying your PV, you want something recognizable.

I went for something flashy with my Manana, but not gaudy. There is a line between flashy and gaudy.

Damn, that looks really nice! I'd personally change the wheels but that's just my opinion.

I need a paint job recommendation for a Felon.

It's for my Female character so I try and keep it the colours going in a female vibe, just nothing too over the top.

How bout a dark red with some chrome high end rims.

[p4rtridge]

I really like this color on felons.

 

[Murciélago]

I don't have a Felon so I experimented with something similar. I think this color looks quite nice. It's Garnet Red with an Ice White pearlescent.

[Daequil]

Metallic Candy Red is pretty nice (at least I think that's what it's called) It has the pink-ish look to it but it doesn't scar your eyes whenever you look at your car.

What color is that? I want it on my Infernus.

[mab-gast]

I don't know what to do with two of my muscle cars, I just know that I want to change them. Any advice is welcome.

I'd change the Buccaneer's color(make it lighter) and change the wheels. I think the Phoenix looks good already

[A Maned Wolf]

Anything I need to change with this?

I'm stuck between what it is now, and making a look-alike to a East Bear Sports skyline:

I'd change the spoiler personally but other than that, it looks really nice.

I'd maybe experiment with other rims (I don't find these suit the car) and possibly make the secondary color a shade lighter to create a bit of contrast and give the car a bit more personality.

[Spectacus]

would you guys want Altezza Lights?

Seriously, I don't know If I like these rims, I based them on this car.

^ Lexus Lights?

You mean Altezza-styled lights?

Yeah, sure.

Nice car, but I'm going to leave this here. (The Manana is based on a 1970's Cadillac Eldorado)

I'd change em to something more tuner-ish. And I personally think IS300 lights are ugly.

[Soran Is On]

Sweet, someone made a thread of my idea.

 

I didn't make this thread because I would have started the thread by insulting everyone that would post in it. This is a far more palatable version.

 

Now I can backseat mod people into B&M and Custom Advice thread.

[Murciélago]

I actually made this because of all the annoying threads about people asking for advice on their cars. ^

I used to have them blue, but the clashing colours started pissing me off.

I used to have the 90's white plate on my Manana. I thought that looked quite nice.

[DrewGSW]

Red looks pretty good on the Coq Classic. I'd go with some nice muscle rims.

[Murciélago]

Should I change anything on my Buffalo? I have the FIB look on it right now.

I totally agree, match the color scheme not the year of the plate. I see lots of vehicles ruined by a clashing plate

 

IRL the plate changes every year anyways, a 70's Eldorado doesn't get a 70's plate for life

I live in California and in the 10+ years I've owned vehicles I've never had to replace my license plates. It is not required to change them every year and quite a few vehicles have their original plates. Both of mine included.
