Mod Idea

[Tez]

I've got an idea for a mod to do on my car. Not too sure if it will work or now. What do you think?

Red side repeaters
Colour coded rear marea handles
Colour coded bump strips

Ooo big pic!!

Think it might work, but it might be a little too much red...

 

[Tez]

Yeah, I was also thinking of going the other way with doing it in satin black, black repeater, and tinted rear lights.

it will work a treat doo it asap.

 

[Tez]

Colour coding or going for the black?

 

[Tez]

Here's my idea for the black:

 

[Kate]

If it was me doing it, id go for satin black handles and bump strips (and maybe a few other bits, see Oz's car for ideas )

I would put crystal side repeaters on
And probably leave the lights alone... Tinted lights can look a bit too much imo

all red trust me

 

[Buzz]

nothing new there tbh, but yeah, colour coding is a good idea imho

I know its nothing new

The only thing I'm thinking of is if I'll be able to match the paint properly because of how red fades.

The picture I posted is a bit too much I think. If I was to do it, I'd have black handles and crystal or black side repeaters, rather than red.

I suppose if the colour doesn't match properly, I can just satin black them.

I'd definitely go with the colour coded bump strips.

Not that fussed on the handles or side repeaters.

Try colouring the bump strips with Alfa 147 handles

its harder than you think to match that red, unless its a bodyshop doing the work, in which case it'll come out fine...

Yeah, I realised that theres almost no chance of me matching it, because of fading over time. Probably just gonna do them satin black so they don't keep fading to grey like they are atm.
