You would also have to do the side vent 86 badge.

Nothing but love bro!~

Actually, I really like the red badge idea, *A LOT*. The one thing that's aways bugged me about this car is that the red pippin in the interior is the same for every color of the car and nothing ties the interoir accent to the exterior

Haha I'm just messing around. I really want to fill in the blacken the badge with red, but I'm too lazy to sit there with a paint brush. I wonder if I can fill it, then wipe the surface off...hmmm.

Oops, now that you mention it... You said it before. I'll thank your posts, if that can excuse it

I think if the wheels were a single color it'd work much better, since Time Attack (someone correct me if I'm wrong) is generally black with a red stripe.

And don't even bother with plastidip and all of that. Get some vinyl pinstriping trim stuff from autopepzone and stick it on there. That will let you know.

@Art_Mighty You ain't real! haha

I'm struggling to find ways to add red to the exterior.
