OK so definite props for at least trying something, but it certainly doesn't seem to work... too strong of a color combo (too contrasting??), and/or no attempt at blending the body/color lines together.

Every picture makes me feel like I'm looking at two cars.

*My eyes hurt*

The problem with the pictures he's posting in comparison to mine is this... Those all have Body Kits... Those all have their rims mounted... Those all have the clear coat applied and buffed to a shine...

I agree that the sharp angle was distracting... the red was probably too bold (although that doesn't bother me so much honestly) but I am trying my hardest to make it 100% original, to stand out, be 100% in my garage custom and also lastly to make it appealing.

I'm NOT gonna paint it one solid color with a high gloss shine because ANYBODY can do that.

(Oh and he's a post Whore... one guy calls him a p**** and he was back at trashing it...)

I will be making changes because this is not the kind of response I want to get every single time I take it out.

I don't need everyone to like it but I need respect and if this paint scheme is a fail then fine... I'll start over.(At least it was my first attempt and I am sure my work ethic is better than all the people that talked shizz on it anyway)

Yes it is but you can buy a black Zenki on Craigslist probably shine it up, tint the windows and go get those luminescent wheels on Ebay.

Oh definately. I was just making the statement.

To Be Honest, i think your car would look great with the wheels mounted, a drop, and an SE lip.

Anybody can paint their car ANY color or any amount of colors.They paint it one color because its what looks the best. Its good you want to be unique, if you do, be prepared to get s*** from everyone about how ugly your car is. You will get that because your car is actually ugly.

Have fun making your car ugly.

Respect....? Who the hell cares about respect from people you don't know? You will ALWAYs have people who hate just because. I personal think your car is hideous. Will you redo your car now?

Just do what you like and screw everybody else.
