just painted my grill to make it look like the new gti

tell me if you like it or not, be honest with me

ohh yeah and the tow hook

SwtC44 · 03-26-2007, 03:49 AM

Hey man, you did a good job with the painting from what i can tell. Its not my style at all, but to each his own! Now you just need some red neon and red angel eyes! lol, ANNNDD the best part is that its something original, ive never seen that, and thats what owning a Scion is all about.

no offense.. its not my personal taste.. i would say throw on the lower grill again, and lose the hook, and paint the trim piece black.

just my honest opinion.

ive seen the red on cars like the new gtis.. and i still dont like them, but my own personal opinion.

L4rry_B1rd · 03-26-2007, 03:51 AM

all in all, not bad.

but please put the lower grille back in unless you are replacing it with a FMIC...

SwtC44 · 03-26-2007, 03:51 AM

also...i think a wash would help lol

maybe it would look better with better pics during the day and a clean car

erric1234 · 03-26-2007, 03:54 AM

ohh the lower grill is off because i hit a rabbit and i just havent had the motivation to put it back on, itll be back on soon

erric1234 · 03-26-2007, 03:55 AM

and no im not putting on neons, or halos

exige · 03-26-2007, 03:55 AM

are you uh..leaving the tow hook in there permanently? plz dont or i'll tow your car away for lack of common sense....

erric1234 · 03-26-2007, 03:56 AM

i might, but im thinking about puttin on an after market one

guitarguru44 · 03-26-2007, 03:56 AM

yea clean it and then get some pics.. also get some pics from further away, not just up close.. clearly this is a rip of the vee dubs but at least you admit it..

erric1234 · 03-26-2007, 03:59 AM

yeah i had just put it on not to long ago, but there will be better pics up tomorrow, im also getting either a cai or lip kit tomorrow, if the have some in stock if not ill be ordering one tomorrow

StevieSoFly · 03-26-2007, 04:35 AM

not my style. kinda reminds me of a pirate

magyver · 03-26-2007, 04:56 AM

it just seems random.. keep it a tc... youd need more red trim for it to go...

erric1234 · 03-26-2007, 05:00 AM

yeah ill be paiting the calipers red soon, and hopefully get some black rims with the red line around the lip, and prob paint the car a really dark black color after a while, i kinda wanna go for a nightmare type theme

GTI-fying your car does not make it a VW.

Also, without the lower grill, having that tow hook on there makes it look like you had to use it.

flex · 03-26-2007, 05:15 AM

i like the gti's alot... honestly, based soley on these pics i think it looks pretty bad

scion_jon · 03-26-2007, 05:17 AM

like the red, only cause its different, but is a tow hook realy a mod, i have never seen anything like that, it lloks wierd

erric1234 · 03-26-2007, 05:19 AM

thanks for all your opinions, i personally think it came out looking good, and yeah the tow hook is coming off and the grill is going back on tomorrow, and ill take some better pics,
