Default show car

i put this on the GDD forum, and those people kept telling me to move it here , i dont know how to move it, so i'll just start another one,
just wondering what ya think about my "show car", i hadnt had a chance to fiberglass the front flairs to the sideskirts, shave the door handles shave the molding, and do something to those lil holes under my doors..maybe next week



it's still on stock height right now, imma slam it pretty soon, and i couldnt figure out what color i wanted, so it's primered for now..keep in mind it's gonna be a "show car"...any comments are welcome.thanks, and sorry for the bad pics..
finally, i got some fresh paint on the car..
here's a couple of shots right before we push it into the paint booth!!

ready to get painted
i can't get a good shot of the whole car cause i'm too lazy to push it out of the direct sun light

widebody . I'm not a fan of the widebodies. I like seeing show cars, but they've gotta have unity and every piece has got to "fit," as in, look like it belongs.

needs some bigger rims, and bags...and ofcourse paint......i wouldnt even waste money on the coilovers...just go to bags so you can really slam it...and if you get bigger rims like 18 or 19 inch then it will look really bad *** slamed.................imo ofcourse......but that is what it takes to win shows.

yea they look like 17's though....whenever you want rims to look big never go with rims that have a lip.....ofcourse it will probably look 100% better when it is bagged...

also try not to let these guys bother you.....you want a show car and that is what you are doing....you are going about it the right way. what you are doing to that car is what show judges look for.....keep it up and lets see some pics when they are done

Only thing I really dont like is the hood, its TOO much for me, other than that the work looks pretty clean. Just get some paint...quick.

Looks pretty clean for a show car. What color are you thinking about painting it? And, since you brought it up, what heart does that beast have in it?

i think you should ditch the top wing, and the hood, but once thats painted it should look nice.
