All the "oh well lets see how it looks when its finished" posts are a bit redundant, i think we unfortunately all have seen the previous two tone thread and disapproved, but to quote the dude, that's just like my opinion man.

I'm not a huge fan of the back piece either BUT maybe once the rest of the car is back together, it could be overlooked.

I'm just trying to be optimistic

I thought it was going to be red and white, not red and creme. And what's that thing on the front bumper?

Sorry dude, not a fan. At all. Not even a little bit.

Honestly I'm just curious to what's going through you mind? I'm not trying to bash you at all, but why the two tone paint job? Especially that design on the front bumper/trunk? It looks like your being thorough about doing the paint job so why not do a custom color to be different. I'm just lost to why people do these types of things lol.

I have two comments/questions.

1) Why didn't you have the mirrors painted red?

2) Did someone drop the paint can on the bumper leaving you with that red blob, at which point, you decided to scribble something on it?

I take back any optimism I may have portrayed. It is time to reach into those deep pockets and try again.

The chrome around the doors and grille and the tags really add additional wrong to that.
Don't understand the color combo, USFL team colors?

I respect your creativity but its not for me also the "deep pockets" tagged on the front bumper and the little tail on the back bumper ruin any positive of your design.

If you painted your car like this because its going to be in a sequel to the "Breakin" movies then that explains it.

Well as long as you stay in your neighborhood you should be fine but keep in mind just because you get attention doesn't mean its positive attention a lot of times people will say something to your face but be thinking to themselves is this guy crazy.

Drop a little more on a the red color matched m5 spoiler,and sarona rear windoew spoiler,redo the mirrors red and a creame color lip kit,and some weather tech's and the car will look good.
Adding you your flare on the front bumper may work for you but,I would consider repainting the whole bumper creme again.
Deep pockets to a cop,would be drug dealer and it might stop a few random pull overs.
I'm sure you will end up following some advise down the road.

Don't know how handy you are with cars but,You can most likely tighten up the gap between the bumper and the drivers lamp.

If you pull the bumper off they're bumper holders right under the lamps.
You can losen the bolts for it and push it up what ever the differnce is you want to fix tighten bolts and re install the bumper and it will be tight to the botom of the lamp.

Could you please explain that again in terms that a complete tard would understand? I have a 2 cm gap between the bumper and driver's lamp and would like to sort it out soon.... (I kind of understand what you are saying, but I'm not there yet...)

Theres a bracket located behind the bumper. If you pull the bumper off the car you will see it. It mounts to the frame rails and the headlight. Loosen the bolts, push it up a bit, and tighten it all up. Then reinstall the bumper.
