I was thinking of doing this, but now I think it looks better in my head than on the car...

Dadhawk · 06-13-2012, 08:27 PM

It's sorta meh to me. I agree it probably looks better in theory than it does in reality.

Well, different strokes for different folks. This is not for me.

It'd be a bit better if the end came all the way up to the rear-most edge of the rear window. Not diggin' it, though.

I also had thought of something similar to this, but it just doesnt seem right. definately unique though. Although... how many can there be on the road? they are already unique

What if you followed the body line up and over the rear wheel arch? That might be cool.. it would accentuate the lines a little more. Might be cool?

I'm not much for stripes, graphics, etc..

Different, but I'm not feeling it. Especially since mine is Raven. I don't think there's much you can do on this car in striping it and it doesn't really need it anyway.

I posted the white one in my owner journal after seeing it when i went to buy my Ultramarine 6AT on Saturday. The graphic looks cool from a distance, in my opinion, but the workmanship is less than stellar.

86design · 06-14-2012, 02:59 AM

its okay...different for sure

lordtakuban · 06-14-2012, 08:03 AM

I don't hate it. But I don't love it either. On the white with the red accent it has a sort of TRD flare about it. But I wouldn't do it to my car.

I agree. Of course you could extend all the way over the roof for that "Starsky and Hutch" look too.

But then you'd have to "clear bra" the entire front of the car, or you'd scratch the hell out of your paint with all of the hood-slides you'd be doing.
