I'm planing on styling my car, half of the car needs painting, so I've looking around and I found this....
http://www.flickr.com/photos/autodetailer/sets/72157608364451971/show/with/2971638911/
Is it nice, that the side mirors and the back light holes are painted silver? chinny
Although I think it looks great, and it would probably match 20VT silver stock rims....?

Link doesn't work but it sounds like an 20VT LE from your description, they have titanium coloured mirrors, rear light cones, headlight plastic and dash strips.

It's the same thing here, but it's not coloured in titanium, but in pure silver(silver coloured mirrors and rear light cones without the headligts and dash strips.... )

Can everyone just chill? I was simply asking if the car in the sig pic was actually his or was it just a pic of another car given the LE wheels and brembo's that's all.
If you look at my avatar you'll see that I have a 16vt too so I know how quick they are thanks rotate

Hmmm - not really. You've got to think about the overall effect that extra power has on the car's performance.

Mines fast enough for me but I'd still love it if it was the slowest thing on 4 wheels!

Uou, noone is arguing here laugh , it's not my Coop on the pics, but I hope it will look alike in couple of months wink

So the silver mirrors is the right choise then, what about the rear light cones....is it the right choise, or should I just leave them in blue?

It's up to you - there's no right or wrong choice - just personal taste.

PS - unless you're going for a complete respray your coop will not look like your sig pic. Yours is blitz blue - that one is electric blue. Change your sig pic - don't be ashamed of your coop! redcard

mines a weekend car so it dont really bother me,the first sign of my baby needing anything she gets taken off road and the part is replaced.also i make sure it is fully cvhecked over every week without fail.look after coupe and coupe look after you!
plus i have the advantage of use of my girls car so my coupe is taken care of like a queen.cars go wrong a lot less if you only use it once or twice a week.
no what you mean tho the more you do to it the more unreliable they become.
i no when my coupe is 300bhp certain thinks will not last as long as it would of when standard but i no that and its fine,i dont use car enough for things to get on top of me

take care of coupe n coupe take car of you!
no what you are saying the more you do the less reliable they become.
i wanted a 300bhp monster so i new when i decided to start project that certain things wont last as long as they would when standard.but like i said i dont do enough milage to notice.

Can someone make a photoshop colour change to blue on this Coop?
