Agreed, the STi spoiler is a bit much. Subtle can sometimes say more than "in your face", esp as I notice the "L"s. I reckon the less attention from the boys in blue the better, also less likely to be broken into...

You could always put a coloured tint (similar to the outside colour you choice) over the top of the white carbon fibre dip?classic jay wrote:Now that's an idea, I might aswell leave the car white if I'm doing that, but its a good idea, I'm keen on it

Yes but they didn't just do the bonnets - the SLR/A9X did the tops of the guards, along the side of the car and into the window frames.RSR 555 wrote:IMO the black or carbon fibre bonnets (and boots) look the boom on cars, gives them that race car look like the A9X from the oldern days.. you know Ken.. when you first got your lic but I guess that's stretching the memory a fair way back
Not all SLRs had painted bonnets and putting a over the guards doesn't really change it that much. My SS hatch had just the black around the windows (like Jayson's Liberty) and so do many cars, so I guess it's just like putting low profile tyres on an Outback...

Just a personnal thing IMO. I guess if we all thought this way, we'd all still be driving around in all black model T Fords.niterida wrote:I just cannot see how any sane person can think that one panel painted or carbon'd a different colour from the rest of the car looks good
Well... At least im not driving around in a mitsubishi thenRSR 555 wrote:Careful Jays.. he does still own an Outback, RS Turbo wagon and a Brumby.. albiet one one of them still drives... well only just

I've got that grille too, it's got black mesh but no badge but I'm 99% sure it's up in the shed Mullaloo........$400 the lot. o422317ooo
I'll send you a PMI agree it looks crap but it's not from the bonnet, it's the whole combination of 1/2 arse bits all over it... That front bar does't line up right, the side skirts don't continue around the back, the grille looks to have over spray all over it, etc.. but I agree that the black out would have looked better (IMO) if they painted the mirrors black and continued the line under the mirrors down to the front of the car.niterida wrote:Crap :
Yes I agree and it's because all the bits are flowing into each other and nothing looks bodgey but this is a 2 tone paint work which isn't a black bonnet as such.niterida wrote:Cool :
It does look cool and mainly because it's paint work follows the natural lines of the carniterida wrote:Cooler :

Which is exactly what I was saying and why just a straight black bonnet doesn't look good - thank you for justifying my point. Full Stop.

Argument?? no arguing from this end.. just a healthy disagreement of opinions.. not justifing your point.. just admiring all modified cars that don't have 1/2 arse bits bolted to themniterida wrote:Which is exactly what I was saying and why just a straight black bonnet doesn't look good - thank you for justifying my point.
