Ok what to do. My car is going back in to the body shop since it needs some work done. Not I have the options of A: change the color and B: take the wing off. Plus, I am installing a new rear, the blitz (like it because it flows smooth incomparison to mine and others)

Remember two things also. I have a cf hood and cf hatch so thinking I could do the two tone black on top and silver on bottom. The entire car black, or my fav color candy red. Let me know what you guys think.

Be honest

Honestly bro, I think your car looks sick as is. But if you would change it, I would do the two-tone with black on top like you said.
 
I thought you were selling your car? :confused:

Oh well, def a new rear don't know about the other things though.
 
i really like the color as is. not sure about the two tone idea....maybe a ps could help me picture it better. and i think it would be a good idea to change the rear. and like i said before, i like the wing the way it is. and something u didnt mention, maybe new rims. black rims or gun metal would look pretty cool imo.

Had a guy wanting to buy it from me and he was supposed to be on his way down from VA but didn't make it since he had some problems at home with the parents so I am planning on finishing the car up and still keep it for sale. Dyno day is tomorrow and body shop is this weekend.

Can anyone photoshop these ideas and another option is the paint over this cf hood to the silver, just don't know what that would look like?? Please help with that :thumb:
 
what about a 2 tone candy red/black with some kind of silver seperator (tribals, flames, etc. etc.) or any other combo of those 3 colors using one as a seperator would look cool....... either way, i think it would look super clean if you ditched the spoiler in the process too.
 
I like the silver but a black top would look even better imo with the carbon hood and hatch. The wing looks good, alot better than some of those huge aluminum ones out there, so I say keep it. The blitz rear would also flow alot better with the lines of your car like you said. One idea that I think would look cool is to have the outer edges of the hood painted, like where the headlights start and have it curve up to the top of the hood, and leave the carbon fiber in the center section exposed. I would also change the wheels to some nice 18" black with polished lip rims.
 
OK, debating now just to repaint the entire car black sine i am going to put the hatch and the hood cf. someone stop me and convince me to do the two tone :confused:
 
I'd go a dark metallic gray - would go well with the CF. Black tends to hide the lines too much - like your rear and front fender vents.

..although I'd paint the whole car.. including the CF. :)
