Default What do you all think ?? (new pics added)

Just changed a few exterior modifications on my Scoob, dont be afraid to tell me what you think.
I took off the PFF7's for a while and resprayed a set of 18" OZ rims that I had in the garage in satin black,then de-badged the front grill and removed the pink STI decals from the sun strip.
Should I de-pink the rest of the front or leave it as it is ?????

As it was...........



As it is now......

Smart car fella If it was mine I'd lose the pink off the grille and change the sti on the fog covers to grey or silver.

Like that idea.

Definitely have to do something with the decals on the fog covers, I had thought about silver, but grey would be nice too.

I'd prefer the silver wheels back on, a silver grille badge and no decals on the bumper. Oh, and the number plate needs trimming smaller.

Glad you still have it Geoff and it is looking as good as ever.

Nothing wrong with the de-Pinking and I like the 'bad boy' style rims.

Can I have it back?

errrr NO

I might replace the decals on the fog covers with silver/dark grey ones as these would match well with the PFF7s when I take a notion and swap the rims back.Another suggestion I liked was the matt black decals

Took the pink STI of the fog covers today and also took the STI badge off the front splitter. Taking shape slowly but surely, dont want to rush things.
Probably get some pics on tomorrow

I prefer as it was, the lighter wheels look better. Dark matt wheels just look cheap tackle and dirty.

Nice car buddy, personally I reckon the wheels in the first pic looked better cos it gives a bit of contrast. Black is always good on a car but you can go too far and make everything black, (unless you don't wanna be seen!)
If it were my car I would put the wheels back on, the decals are good but I would change to maybe silver, or a colour to match your interor blue/red etc.
Mint car though!!

Just ordered 2 sets of decals for the foglight covers, one grey and one silver.
The rims are only on the car for a bit of a change and i'll put the PFF7s back on after a few months and then might get the OZ rims sprayed a silver or anthracite colour for another change.
