another thing is that there are no mods done to the car , but i put a boost guage in and to find that the car is pushing 15 lbs. of boost at wot its the stock boost controller, and nothing else is touched
 
what would you paint on the car to break it up, and what color

Black pin striping.

Do the small things black, like door handles, wiper arms, you could also paint the top black kind of like 1gb talons I think that would look better!

what do you mean the roof?????????? the whole roof, or leave the pillar peice green and paint the rest black?
 
any one think that i should put the 1gb talon wing on this car? painted black with a black hood? or too rice?
 
If you were around where i live believe me or not but i have a friend who paints cars and you would be amazed of what he can do with 6 cans of krylon spray paint ;)

haha.........no. id rather not spraybomb my car.. thanks anyway.........if he paints cars with spray bombs, that does not say too much about his skills
 
heres what you do.. take a look at where the talon below is painted black, and paint that same part black on your laser -- get that awesome two tone look going. You can keep the green and look unique but at the same time have a clean look.

and then get the same wing too

I totally said that on the first page LOL. Anyways, I think that would look fly.
 
Like someone previously stated, that color works ok for a 2g but its fugly on a 1G. Your only gonna get negitive attention with that color. I say paint it dark grey, or cherry red :cool:
 
well, when i got the car they were a dark grey, but i just redid them black. so they def. are off of a vr-4?

The wheels on GVR4s were painted to match the bodies, and the Nile black ones, at least, had a polished lip.

I forgot about an edition of Lasers that came out where this was their stock setup. I've only seen them on these Dark Green ones with gold wheels like this. These are what you do have. I wonder if your car was originally this green...
