You need to address this:

Until you do, everyone here knows you are a tool.

Come on, what do you have to say? Don't just ignore it.

 

lol well starting from page7.

 

my bad. check your first page. i made a mistake. i thought u were this guy lol

https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...ighlight=spray

it look good at first until page 7.

 

Aaah, I understand. Hahaha, no, I'm not THAT crazy... truck bed liner is a little nuts.

What went wrong at page 7? All I did was paint my rims glossy and tint the front windows...

 

I will say not my taste. The paint job could be a lot better if it didn't have blotches. The Lip you have just doesn't flow with the car its all curvy. idk if you scuff up the headlights but if not i'd recommend trying to restore them to look a little cleaner.

I understand your going for this nasty DeathRace looking car if so just take off that nasty lip it looks horrid and it might make the car look 10x better

 

I agree on the paint job; you get what you pay for, haha. It looks okay for $40, especially in person... photos tend to make it look worse. I'll go back in sometime and sand/refinish it.

Are you saying the lip that is on the car now looks bad, or the one I did a concept of? I agree the actual lip on right now looks like rubbish (it IS just a garage door liner...)--that's why I'm designing the sheet metal one.

 

not bad for 40bucks haha but if you know what i mean and could perfect it somewhat that would be great. The lip you have on now yeah take that thing off. The new lip looks pretty cool looks like something from the movie Death Race id say do it.

 

Take off the existing lip. Don't do the concept lip either. Your proposed idea looks like you are just trying to make it look lower.

 

are you going for the mad max/rat rod look or more of a whatever comes to mind constantly changing chameleon thing? if you want the ratty look id suggest you dump the wheels and get some steelies, which would also be a good idea for your "rough and tumble" idea, theyres nothing "rough and tumble " about 17s. also do the washer rake on the hood itll take away from the misalignment or bend that it has now from the hit. furthermore small joining plates and rivets where bodylines meet will add to the look you seem to be going for. Whats the interior look like, i hope the interior reflects the exterior

 

btw if you do want that kind of lip it needs to either be smooth sheet metal with rivets mounting it, or diamond plate with bolts mounting it, wither way it needs to be black
you need this

If you want a unique clean look, get rid of the flat black. Use the floor cealent that they use for garages and other cement. That would look dope white with the multi grain in it. Nice and polished, would look very euro trash like what you have going on but actually unique. Went to a car show 2 weekends ago and 3 cars were chalk board... One ended up with I played with chalk when I was 12 on it, I LoLd. Just a thought, I'll take my royal blue with silver metal flake and bronze rims any day but I also love the super clean, super polished and finish look and think a body drop is sexier then unique.

 

I've subscribed however as I think the it's interesting what you have come up with however feel like I couldn't do it to my car as it would disrupt the lines, too busy shaving accessories off rather then adding them.

 

Going slowly but surely for the mad max sort of look, just not too extreme. (I'm not going to start bolting guns to it... though that WOULD be pretty awesome.) Wheels are definitely on my list but I don't quite have the funds for them at the moment.

Can you please tell me what a "washer rake" is? I'd appreciate getting my hood back in shape but I don't know what you mean.

I really like the plates over the body lines idea... I might have to do something about that. Maybe I'll make some mock panels with rivets on them and stick them on to see how they look.

At the moment, though, I'm going more for the 'batmobile' sort of look; rough-and-tumble but still with nice lines and relatively clean. As the car gets older I will probably make it look more and more mad-max-ish.

I haven't done anything too special to the interior yet except paint everything black, but I'm planning on putting in diamond-plate sheet metal all over the floors at some point in the near future.

I bought a few strips of 24-gauge sheet steel for the lips; I'm going to paint them chalkboard black like the rest of the car and rivet them to the bumpers--we're on the same page!

I'm not exactly sure what you are suggesting for the color; can you find a pic of a car or something painted with that stuff? It sounds awesome but I dunno exactly what kind of sealant you're talking about.

I'm gonna need a pic of your rims too... They sounds wicked.

I understand the draw of shaving accessories instead of adding them... One of the first things I did to my car was shave the antenna and debadge the whole car. Feels good, haha.

 

I dig it!

 

whatever happened with the lip???

 

the car got worse and it looks like a jeep now

 

That was the same one? With the bumpers and stuff !? I had high hopes for him pulling this off...sad face if its the car I'm thinking of.

 

No, this went wayyyy down hill.

 

cant.
even.

I like the enthusiasm. He didn't take his car seriously and made a joke out of owning a tC. Props for having brass *****
