Thanks. Maybe I overreacted.
I don't care if someone likes my car or not. I'm happy with it. HOWEVER, one of my biggest pet peaves on ANY forum is when random members presume to just jump in and tell people what to do with thier car.
IT'S DIFFERENT if someone posts pictures and says something along the lines of "what do you think? any suggestions? what should I change?" etc, etc. Then that person is looking for comments... but when someone posts an INTRO thread, it's expected for them to post pics. As a matter of fact, there are a few intro threads that I've read where the OP didn't post pics and everyone hounded them to post.
SO.... I think we've more than covered that at this point.
As for my wheels, I have no photoshop, and I'm like a kid with a crayon with Paint.... so here is my general rendition of what I want for my wheels. Maybe if someone is feeling generous they could actually photoshop them on my car for me...
my text explanation: black spoked wheels, yellow rim around the outer bevel, factory silver "pinstripe" around the outmost edge, factory silver lugs, and yellow on the inside edge of the 5 major "V"s in the wheel.


here's my opinion:
dude, no..make the goddamned thing fast, stop spending money on "show mods", and send it on "go mods"...color matching like that is a one way highway to Ricetown, next you're going to ask us how we feel about you painting your interior yellow....
listen to whoever said it and powdercoat your wheels. it's a boosted cobalt ss, it's not a ford escort. a can of spray paint and your car should never be within ten feet of each other...
unless you think lambo doors, chameleon flames and a bumpin system is cool....and vnmous for a license plate...to each their own
but i'd hate to see such a nice car get autozone mod-ed out...

Performance Mods -
Trifecta Switchable Tune
Dejon Short Ram Intake, Dejon IC Piping.
I don't have a burning desire to make it much faster... I've had it to 140 prior to installing the tune... and it's my daily driver, so while the occasional drag is fun, it wont be a regular thing.
------ yes, I painted my door panels yellow.... I have more interior to paint before I'm done.
Not everyone wants a race car... this thing is plenty fast without a bunch of extras, and I actually enjoy the shows. During the summer it wasn't unusual for me to be at 3 shows a week...
Regardless, I appreciate everyone's comments... even you Silver. LOL.

I understand you go to shows. But painting everytihng yellow wont win a show. It will make the kids walking by looking at all the cars point and laugh at yours. Make it nice with NICE mods. No bull#!#!#!#!.Performance Mods -
