black (it'd have to be acrylic) keep all the chrome except the bonnet letters, 13 inch fronts 14 inch rears and high profile tires (maybe not BFG's im sure they're quite expensive )
shit quality edit but you get the idea
yeah, i suppose that sums up the look im after. although it'll be a sheep in wolfs clothing with a grey motor LOL.
just want it to look tough, but not look out of place cruising thru city or beaches

there we go dad, 3 against 1 black it is.
ill gladly sacrifice being uncomfortable for a good looking car
gaz, i'll see how it goes with chrome-deciding what bits to keep etc. i just think it would look neater without the bonnet ones, but leaving the boot ones and maybe get rid of the boot lock and do something about the filler
Jimmy
looks like its either black or black. hopefully it will look good in acrylic anyway. anyone got ideas on wheels & tires to get the look i want? 13's on front and 14's on rear i THINK, but what profile tires (and what fits under the guards without too much modification
if you want black do it black after all it is yor car and you ARE the only person that has to like it
they do look good in black
i think they also look good in
white
silver
purple (darker shades like phantom)
the blue it already is (unless it's the gray one )
and quite a few original colours

You can play around with rim sizes, tyre sizes and profiles etc..... it shows the diference in rolling diameter, profiles etc, very handy. For example my car runs 15" 60 profile on the front and 15" 50 profile on the rear, but because the 50 profile rear tyres are so much wider they are actually still larger in diameter than the 60 profile on the front.
cheers garry, i actually found an earlier post where you gave that link and its a fantastic tool! although ill need to research what offset i can use etc to allow for clearance.
Cheers mate, Jimmy

oh yeh RB, its the grey one (grey paint HAS to go!) lol.
cal, i just thought i'd go for something different instead of the lowered whitewalls etc thing-seems far too common these days and im not one to conform lol
cheers guys, jimmy
