DelSolSweetie Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 okay so i got the car back to go to the car show but i have to give it back to the guy so he can finish it.. the stars need pinstriped still(hes going to make the top of the big star more even with the bottom too).. the car isnt even buffed or anything in these pics cause he did the clear coat quick(10 hours before i left) and it had some runs in it so he has to sand it and re-clear it.. and i dont know what color to paint the rims(any ideas?? the stars are going to be pinstriped in black) it looks better in the sun when the paint sparkles (white pearl and the pink has sparkles) but the weekend was rainy and cloudy except like a few hours on saturday (see the sky in the second picture compared to the rest)..

Hatch92 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 doesn't look too bad. as for the rims i would prolly go with white personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubbith Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 looks preety nice. Id paint the rims white with pink lip. (It seems like it would look good, but it may look like complete ass when you get them on the car..if it did, just go all white) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airjordan223 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 yeah id do white rims with that. the small stars look alright for your car but the big one looks like its arms are stretched out for a big ol hug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannaBstuntin Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) Yea the big star is weird. I'm sure it will look good with black pinstriping though. Why not paint the wheels pink too? EDIT: Also seems like the hood is missing something. Edited February 24, 2008 by wannaBstuntin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_agu28 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I like it. It is very different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delsol209 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 very unique just get the rims painted and you will be golden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airjordan223 Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Why not paint the wheels pink too? EDIT: Also seems like the hood is missing something. because then you would have pink wheels as for the hood, maybe its the washer nozzles?

CleanGSR Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I think on the wheels I'd go pink with white lip or white with pink lip and have your body shop paint them the same pink/white as the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 yah i think the problem with the big star is the top isnt quite even with the bottom so hes going to fix it.. i still like it and as for the rims i was going to: -gloss black with a pink lip(stars are pinstriped in black) -white with a pink lip -just white and he has pink left so it will be the same white and pink on the car.. and as for the hood... its a stock civic hood.. i like it on there(i like that front end better then the whole del sol front).. but what about washer nozzles.. was that a joke or serious cause there are holes in the hood and i dont know what they are for haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wannaBstuntin Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I just meant the hood is all white. You could have a big pink star on there or something, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Humphries Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 that looks cool.. paint wheels pink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 yah hes lowering it for it when he does the pinstriping and all that.. im thinking about painting the rims glossy black and a pink lip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kristin Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 Looks nice. Rims: White/ pink lip. If the black is going to be an accent on the stars. Black on white always makes me think of old steelies over-loaded with brake dust. [No offense to you at all] White on white with a pink lip would tie everything together. I think the black might be too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 i was really thinkin white and pink .. i dont know! haha they wanted to do the stars pinstriped in gold with like bronze rims.. but thats not me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannaBstuntin Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 I think the consensus is white with pink lip, if that's do-able. The black tires outlining that would tie in with your black pinstriping. Let us know what you decide on, and as always, post pics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelSolSweetie Posted February 26, 2008 Author Share Posted February 26, 2008 you know i'll post pics right when i get it back... they are going to be a pain to keep clean!! haha i live on a red dirt road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
