I think if it had some 16s with a little more of an agressive look to them (RC Starks, Work VS-XX, concave face CR-Kais etc) it would take all the attention away from the big sideskirts.

Those wheels in white with the red stickers would be perfect! That size and offset looks very proper on that car.

I found some on ebay but they have blue stickers, and they're 15". Pretty tempting!

Is a color change where they do door jambs and possibly my hatch floor worth it or will it just be "cheap looking"? I plan on pulling my motor so the bay will be done as well if that helps.

If the above can't be done correctly, then I'm just going to have the white re-done and clean up here and there.

So if you have any experience with paint and body or have seen the out come of what I'm talking about, speak up.

Thanks,

Speaking from experience I wouldn't do a full color change if your not wanting to spend a buttload. Because if it isn't done right then if it ever chips its going to drive you crazy if you see white underneath. I would just repaint white plus white egs are the ****

Re: ((((((((----EG Hatch Thread----PT 2 )))))))))

Yeah I dont think a full body is worth it for a car like yours. Even though you haven't posted in forever(hint hint) I still know your car and it really wont matter. I only did my outside too and it blends with the doorjams alright. You couldn't tell. Too much resources and money to do the interior if you're only going to cover it up anyways.

I still really want to run back seats and I never plan to have a cage in the car, so it's only going to be the rear hatch floor since the cover is all warped and jacked up. I might just do a "truck bed liner" on that area just to clean it up.

Thanks for everything guys and yes, there will be a true build thread starting soon because I'm pretty much ready to finish this car.
