Default i had a crazy thought and wondered if its been done? am im serious...

im rebuilding my 91 rex and wondered if it would look cool with a white base coat with street graphiti completely covering it, and not shitty stuff, like hiring a graphiti artist to do it and then clear coating over it, thought about also trying it first with the new washable paint to see if i like it, i think street graphiti would represent the roots of the crx and honda for that matter, please post pictures if you have any. thank you

that looks like a clown car

maybe if everything wasnt so bubbly and not pink and baby blue, it might look sick. i have this pic in my head with a bunch of darker colors, and it looks pretty clean

It might look ok if the colors aren't so bright.

That Scion is too flashy

i just meant that honda didnt start nor has it ever been a rich mans car, its a cheap car that teenagers can afford even people from the hood, and also that xb looks ******* GAYYYYY because they covered the windows and the head lights and the grill and the fog lights, if it actually had more lines to show definition i think i would look better, and i was thinking less bubbley more hard angles with green and red and dark blue, sorta like on the cover of the december 2003 issue of SCC, maybe even a little pink and wierd colors but not that HUGE, i dont want pink as a main color, i was thinking bright green and dark blue like a navy.

A friend had ppl airbrush the characters of MaxBoost all in the engine bay/under hood/trunk and i think door jams on his DelSol. Looked really sick. I doubt there are pics floating around but I'll see if I can dig some up.

If the artists can stick to sharp style graffiti (angled edges if bold, or just sharp writing), darker tones... say blacks, dark red, dark greens. It would be better. Also nothing huge on it, maybe just a few things here and there, sorta like rally style. subtle yet unique
