Well the Massacro is one of those cars that can go elegant, or can go racer. You kind of have to pick a direction.

 

If you're going for the racer look, then the carbon hood is fine, although I'd get the higher-end one once you've unlocked it. Personally I prefer this skirts over the higher ones. You'd also probably want the fender vents, roll cage, and either of the two big wings. Naturally, the color should be bold and sporty (although all black would be fine as well).

 

If you're going for the elegant look, no carbon at all, and pretty much no body mods. A more subtle paint color, like a brown, or the darker metallics, would be good.

I feel like I am the only one that likes the half cocked, few race mods, kinda clean look. Like the Massacro above. I feel like most real street cars are that way. Most people don't go full race car, but still have carbon bits, scoops, etc.

 

Idk. I guess I like all 3 levels of mods. Real clean, half cocked, and full race car.

 

As long as the colors are good and the mods arent completely out of place (GT wing on a completely stock looking car), I dig it.

No skirt. I'd make it luxurious since it's not the race version.

only thing i would try to change is to some full chrome wheels. the black centers kind of kill it imo. although i am not sure if they make that style in full chrome.

I actually love this look. I can't justify having two with a street version and race version, so I try to find a compromise as well, and it's tough.

 

The all-black looks so good on this car. Nice work - I'd keep it.

Looks good as it is right now. The wheels might look better with something with a chrome lip to give it a bit more contrast instead of one solid shade of black like that.

Thoughts?

 

Leave it. Looks perfect as is. The custom tires fit it.

 

also this seems to be the Official brobro posts a standard car snap thread

What do you mean? He's the creator of all these amazing colors and color combinations, it's not like they're all old and found by other people ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

it's annoying to have to scroll through the thread cause people have to quote massive pictures. That DB5 one is basically posted 3 times. Just find a smaller one on google.

Good point actually; Perhaps Kiff ought to use spoilers for large photos, however; you Could of been more straight-forward

my taste may not be yours, but maybe start with something like the real life counterparts and then go from there.

Just bought this bad boy for Hector. Thoughts?

Color is Matte Dark Grey with a Rolled Steel pearlescent (done with the pearl-on-any-color glitch). Wheels are chrome Amazon off-road wheels.

 

 

The LSPD will arrest anything...including a quadbike.4lbqpdPVQku0mo5k81hLWw_0_0.jpg

The quad looks fine Jeep...though i'd personally use black rims. Also how did you get it in that room?

The backdoor to the main LSPD station (the impound lot station in single player) is unlocked in online. The bike barely fits, and when you get inside, the prison cell doors are unlocked. You can wedge it in.

just delivered, so starting with a clean slate i guess you could say. :lol:

not exactly sure on the color to use and the color will most likely dictate the rim choice, but in the factory white i am leaning towards the chrome Lowrider Turbine rims. thoughts or opinions? will post a pic later after i play around with it a bit tonight.

Mine has always been white. First I had one painted as a replica from story mode, one of the S&F missions in which you have to get a man to a church on time for his wedding (there'll be a Super Diamond available for you to steal and keep,at the completion of the mission). My current Super Diamond is painted one of Rockstar's hidden colors, it's one of the custom NPC vehicles that I glitches into my garage.

 

So white is always nice, and black is never wrong on a car like this. You could try a custom crew pure black to be a little bit different.

 

If you want some color, many of the dark metallic colors (blue or red in particular), with a subtle matched pearlescent) will give a nice elegant look.

na, i use LSC only, no custom crew or hex edits for me. i know it is kinda silly, but it is my quirk to bear. :beerhat:

 

did check the Wine Red, but seems like it got over used as soon as it came out. White, Black or some shade of Silver/Grey is what i am thinking as well.

 

edit, Cream seems like a decent option maybe as well.

I'd go with a Gold-ish or Cream color. I have a wheel in mind for you, but dont know that name of it lol. Not sure wich category its in either. But they look like irl RR wheels. If i can find a pic of mine i'll edit my post later.

 

Edit: just seeing you suggested Cream as well, lol.
