Nice! i actually like the black guard flares and the alloys are sweet

[Hatchman]

top of the bumpers are DEFINATLEY going black before I leave for school, mirrors too.

[So Live]

Yeah i dont really like the black as it is right now. It dosnt go with anything.

[2002maniac]

looks great! I would definitely do the bumbers and/or valences black.

[mtechnik]

Contrast is a good thing, but NOT in this case. You've got way too much red/black going on all over the place, with no flow to it whatsoever. It's all just spread about with no point to it. And you're going to add more by doing the mirrors and just the tops of the bumpers? It looks bad already, that's just going to make it look worse. All just my opinion, but I know I'm not the only one who shares it.

I think it will look unique and pretty tasteful once you paint the top half of the bumpers and mirrors.

Whats this "too much contrast and too little contrast" deal? Ericks car has much more contrast than this, his is 1/2 and 1/2 and you guys love it. I guess its all personal preference.

Not alone in your opinion. It just doesn't flow for me. If that trim was still chrome, it would tie in your rims nicely.
Looks like you have put a lot of work into it tho, get some flow and this car will be hott, just my opinion.

edit: you need a plate filler

[bmwm3n528]

You're really got an interesting style. That's all I've got to say.

Exactly. So what are you having such a fit about?

[GaryE30]

No fit, just trying to understand everyone's flip-flop views. You stated how it wouldn't flow, but its not like he's painting a door and an opposite quarter panel. He's doing the body's trimmings black which is common in vws.

clean jetta

[Digitalwave]

Woot! My black body accents look like shit so I am going to add MORE black body accents to make up for it, instead of spending money on red paint!

Great mentality
