a bit OTT for me im affraid,but its your car and if you like it then thats all that matters.

DJ_Jon 22 March 2011 07:59 AM

When are you going rallying in it?

bushiwarrior 22 March 2011 09:34 AM

I'm not speeding im qualifying = brilliant :thumb:

ironbridge 22 March 2011 10:08 AM

different, but i like it. colour scheme is good.

i think the front looks sweet, the white blends into the black really well................but at the back it just looks like you put a white spoiler and bumper on without blending it in.

jesus christ another one spoiled.

TinyTim 22 March 2011 04:17 PM

Was hoping I wouldnt ever see that thing again :wall:

vash 22 March 2011 04:22 PM

I like that :)

But I agree you need to do something with the rear spoiler and bumper. They need blending in, at the mo they just look stuck on and out of place.

I am usually for clean styled cars but this is obviously a little more fun and for that I like it!.

not my taste mate ....but its your scoob so enjoy

howes124 22 March 2011 07:29 PM

i accept it like marmite :), but i got it because i been down the normal and shiny route before to me thats not wot scoobys are about, at the end of the day there rally cars not show cars (really sorry if that offends), and its sometimes good to be different :),
theres not a lot i can do with the spoiler and bumper as the dark parts not vinyl, so any ideas would be accepted guys.

astra_dave 22 March 2011 07:44 PM

i like it mate, nice one for being different!

bioforger 22 March 2011 07:46 PM

They aint rally cars at all they're road cars...

JonMc 22 March 2011 08:28 PM

not for me I'm afraid, but the finish looks good:D

wrx287 22 March 2011 08:59 PM

Yikes, that's hard to read... :freak3:

Mind you, your car is quite difficult to look at too....

I have fitted the pace fmic so no probs there :-)

gray-efc 22 March 2011 11:10 PM

if the whole car was white with a few less graphics it would look really nice, You can tell you have spent a lot of time and effort on it and if you like it thats all that matters. You can always change some bits when you get bored.

Gear Head 22 March 2011 11:27 PM

Fair play on the time and effort spent, but in my eyes, that is bloody awful. :razz:
What sort of look were you going for anyway?

I really am having trouble understanding what you are saying. However I do understand that you love your car. It isn't my cup of tea & you posted pictures on a public forum for critique, so I'm afraid you are going to have to accept that other people don't share your opinion. Don't let it bother you though, it's your car & you get to be seen in it, enjoy!

Telf 22 March 2011 11:45 PM

Can't decide if I like or not. I like most bits of it, like the colour blending on the wheels, but "something" just doesn't seem right, and I don't know what it is.
But overall I like, I think.
As already said, as long as you like it THAT is all that matters.
Maybe I'll see it in the flesh one day.
Any before pictures?

howes124 23 March 2011 12:51 AM

i think its more of see it in the flesh car, as many before have said, not sure about this and that, but changed there views once they have seen it, like there say to me pics dont do it justice.

wrbhawk 23 March 2011 01:12 AM

I don't think it looks too bad from the front.
But the colour clash and "in your face" graphics at the back don't do it for me tbh

But like you said, it's a marmite car, and if it's different that your after you sure as hell acheived it.

the wing is blended into the door with the 'graffiti/writing' whatever you want to call it.

why dont you get some vinyl stickers made the same as that writing, then blend the back bumper and spoiler in the same way.
