Interested in seeing a 99-01 in different colors?

Hey guys,

I was kinda bored and played around with photoshop... dropped my car by about ~1.75" f / ~1.5" r, and painted it into a couple of colors available for our cars. I just tried to match them so they aren't totally accurate but you should get the idea.

I thought this would be neat for those who are intersted in how a 99-01 TL would look with a drop + OEM kit + dark tints.

btw if anyone wants to see it in another color just reply to thread i'll see what i can do.

Heather Mist Metallic
(Before, no drop)


(After, with drop)




Other colors...

Aegean Blue Pearl


Anthracite


Firepepper Red


(Forget fancy name) Green


Satin Silver Metallic


Sundance Gold


and finally....





























ok this last one is just for laughs...































Hippy style

i checked out a couple of members' rides in firepepper and i think im gonna tweak that pic a little since the red in it looks too bright/fresh.
