I'm usually not a fan of stripes on imports, but i really like the two tone concept you have going........post some pics when u get it all done!!
That actually doesn't look that bad. Nice drawing too.
wait, I'm confused, that looks just like the way your car is now. Whats different?

o, ic, the front bumper is being painted back to red. I think that looks better than before. If you're showing the car, you might think about bonding the kit differently. Those rivits on the kit are horrible, I would recommend counter-sinking the rivits.

I like the rivets.
nice drawing!! smile.gif

hmmm the paint job would be toooooo similar to what you have now. If I were going to paint my car again I would do something different altogether biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif I have always loved dark blue & orange together...sooo if I were to custom paint my car Id make a design working those 2 colors together oooh yes smile.gif

*but my cars will forever be black...thats just how i like it hehe

that strip looks like the one that mopar put on some of their cars
the color is eh, but the drawing itself is really good, i like how the lights and windows are all in proportion to one another, nothing looks odd or awkward. Idk about the striping, and id paint all the body kit the same color, dont black the skirt and paint the front and tail red.

Just and opinion tho.

well thank you all on the compliments on the drawing, the reason for the paint is because back in August I hit a ditch at like 3:30 in the morning on the way home from a show and really did some bad damage to the front bumper. I did a quicky job but in my opinion it sucks. So there for repainting the front bumper, I was playing with ideas and came across this, i like it. I will also be adding more to the car in the next week. I'll keep u all posted and get some pics up when I'm done. As for the rivits...I like the way they look now but when I go to shows even when I explain why they are there they don't agree so I'm thinking of counter sinking them. Not sure yet but well see.

Oh and sorry I forgot to add, yes the stripe is Mopar it's from the oldDodge Darts, what can I say I love the oldies......had to add some old school
i think this looks 10x better, i really wasn't a fan of wut u got now but that slight change fixed it for me. reminds me of my car atleast how it was.

I dont think the blitz front flows with the 6th gen celica at all.
I swear I seen that same design on a st at that car show here in Pittsburgh? Import fusion...

blitz don't look right, but this new paint idea is MUUUCH better then before...ditch the dragons too
well either way the dragons are staying for two reasons, one i took the time to hand paint them on there and i don't want to think i did all that for nothing and two it goes with the theme of my car for showing and alot of the judges like the graphics.....thanks for the opinion though....and thank you burneeed.....im poor so for now no engine swap just some upgrades and some polished stuff.
