Very different, like Zippy said, dark wheels would work so much better

Davey96wrx what's chav about it?? A thort chav was big body kit massive sound system n neons. N Lexus lights not carbon fibre :/ :/

What difference does it make about the colour police love every scooby with an exhaust no matter what the colour but if your driving properly n not brakin the law there's no need to worry about the police I've got 3 little children so driving like a dick is long gone so may aswell look nice n cruise

Matt it's Mercedes AMG yellow where I live there are a few scoobies driven by w@nkers silver blue white the usual colours n the last thing I want is the police gettif a report from some old person saying Sumone in a silver Subaru is driving bad n constantly get pulled over so it's totally different so no hands of that unless I drive stipid

Beef it's a rage one I managed to get for a fiver so got a result and it's actually quite good tbh

Look good but can I ask what's going on with the rear spats on the bumper look to far back causing a gap between the spat and rear wheel?

Not a fan of black or carbon bonnets and spoilers looks tacky IMO

If your happy with it that's the main thing, I'd feel embarrassed driving something like that, 98% of other motorists views on your car would not be complementary, labelled a boy racer instantly I'd have thought.

Subtle and stealthy with big brakes and big power is the best way IMO.

By the way, don't take much notice of my ramblings I'm a grumpy old git! Lol

I just prefer them subtle ;-)

Willsh I've got some new ones it had RA spats on and had them cut so bought new ones just waiting to be painted.

And there's no point me having big power my kids are in the car 99% of the time so pointless plus I can't afford the big bills to repair it when it will go bang .. I like carbon tbh round the north easy there's hundreds I scoobies all looking the same front splitter, front mount and big wheels blue, white or silver not that there's anything wrong with that I just rather be a little different like I say my days of driving stupid on the roads are done after my crash so thought ide do it to what I like . Me 5 year old son actually picked the colour he knows more about cars than me lol

Love it mate.

I do agree & think black wheels would give it a much meaner look but hey ho it's your pride & joy dude.

I love the look of the bonnet I think it works well, btw what make is the gear ****?

The hockey sticks have been cuts because it had rare RA flaps on not to my taste to took them off I've got some new ones that need painting to replace them

And the gearnob is a TRUST/GREDDY gearnob which is from a r34 gtr and was stupidly expensive lol


About the wheels I still may change for anthracite once I fit my abw's the reason I stuck with white I think too much black and yellow Itl look like a taxi lol

It looks like a nice job has been done there fella,but I have to be honest and say I hate yellow on a scoob.
That said it would be pretty boring if we were all the same though!

Whilst it's not my cup of tea, it's your car and it does look well done. The only things I'd change are the wheels as has already been said and I'd colour code the boot lid to black as the spoiler just looks like a stuck on after thought.
