Default Engine build done!~ Now we work on the body... Suggestions and pics needed...plz

Ok here's the deal... I've got a fourth gen lude vtec.. last year I built an H22 to run high 13's naturally aspirated... I accomplished this goal at the track this year. So now I'm looking to work on the body... Altough the car looks good now I want it to look damn sexy... So heres my idea...

This color :


On my car:


Other additions will include molding the rest of the WW RS kit on my car.. Shaving all the emblems, trunk key hole, antenna and maybe door handles. I have a VIS Carbon Fiber hood on the way already. I will naturally have to change the rims as I'm getting a vis hood to a gunmetal type rim.. I'm thinking of throwing on the Velox VX-6R's...



Any suggestions or photoshopped images are welcome and appreciated... I have no photoshop skills.. Also if u have pic's of other cars in this color plz post em... preludes in this color would be a bonus. Cheers

I that 350Z color!

Don't shave your handles, though, unless you don't want to track the car anymore.

Yes it would be a headache.

Shaving handles = Danger To Manifold

that color will look badass on your car along with those rims,...and about shaving the handles,...if you ever want to track that car again i suggest you not shave em,...some tracks have rules that if you shave the handles you cannot track the car,...i know my race track has that rule,...its for safety reasons ,...also if you have really frigid winters sometimes the door poppers will freeze up and then you will be locked out of your own car,...just a heads up

I think I've decided to go ahead and do it.... I'm probably gonna wait another month or so to aquire the funds...That lude above looks nice..that color is kinda similar..but actually going up to this color on the 350z dropped my teeth..! I'm not sure if I should drop my engine and get the whole engine bay done... I might do that next year for money issues...so the engine bay might stay black for a little? Ahh well car should look pretty badass though... U guys think I'm jumping on a bandwagon? I haven't seen to many ludes in this color.... thx for the feedback, much appreciated. This is a very had desicion as I love my black...!
