Anthracite on green looks good, but liking the White :thumb:

With some white colour coding on the car they'll look cool. The anthracite looks good but does'nt stand out ( if thats what you're after? ).

Love the blue scoob, what colour is that by the way???:thumb:

gpssti4 21 January 2011 10:31 AM

How about something very different colourwise.

Now you've got me thinking.
What are the tyres like & what about the distance between us?

Take a look at this thread where I brought these wheels from. There is some close up pic's of my wheels at the end of it. Then see what you think.
(mind you not a problem for you with that spray gun)

I do think mine will look lovely when the car is lowered but, they would look the nuts on yours.

Are you going to the Colin McRae weekender? I'd love to see your work close up.

Cheers :thumb:

My tyres are pretty good, loads of meat on them. Not the best make though. The wheels are also in good nick, few marks, nothing I can't put right though :)

I remember those wheels going up for sale now, wasn't willing to pay that much then, espesh as my wheels were ok!!

I'm defo going to the Colin Mcrae weekender (on nwcscoobieclubs stand), it'd be rude not to as its only about 5 miles from where I live :D

That cool. hopefully see you there then. We've rented a cottage out in Babell nr Holywell. Looking forward to it so setting that as my target date to have the car ready.:eek:

I'm going to be brave and stick with the white and see my plans through. :thumb:

I can always get then powder-coated if I change my mind.

Thanks mate and once again yours is lovely.:)

L.J.F 08 March 2011 09:28 PM

looking good mate, i think your bravery has paid off:)

M444GY 09 March 2011 12:53 PM

i think it looks ace :thumb:

andy-m 09 March 2011 04:13 PM

i was against white wheels on a green car (As mine is green too) but having seen them on yours, i'm not sure.
its like looking at a chick who your not sure if she's beautiful or ugly. borderline, cant quite decide if you would or not, but you still have too look anyway

V555MAC 10 March 2011 09:48 AM

Like the look of that a lot, be even better de-tango'd:thumb:

Paul&bon 10 March 2011 05:22 PM

Thanks guys. I'm loving the look myself. Next job is my fmic which I picked up on the weekend then a remap. Hoping for 340-350 bhp. Then back to the body work with sti rear spoilers p1 splitter and colour coded side skirts. I need to get the rear bumper sorted aswell. I was hit up the arse in the snow, lightly mind but flaked the paint so need to have the bumper repainted. The bumper on the car in the pic's is one I got off the bay from a 96 model which has different moldings and is a slightly different green. Estimated finish time 3months.

Why you stripping yours, is it being broke or do you have plans for it?

:wonder: The way some people put stuff cracks me up.:lol1: I think I understand what your saying. Although I think mine is an outright beauty and if the exhaust wasn't so big I'd bang it.:lol1:

Yes like it :thumb:

+1, i am surprised how well it works on a green car!:)

Maz 22 March 2011 05:15 PM

That is looking very nice. I think window tints would finish it off (are they ever finished!).:thumb:
