I agree. It does look more aggressive before..

I guess at this point in time I need to decide whether to leave it as is...or put it back the way it was.

gbrettin · 05-06-2013, 08:46 AM

After. I think there is too much black before.

LunaZ · 05-06-2013, 10:11 AM

I like the after better.
I feel like when the black goes all the way down it looks like a quick and lazy taped off and Plasti-Dipped HP additive.

Or like a Toyota Matrix:

Or a Hyundai whatever this is:

Or a whale shark:

Actually, I'm just ready for the trend of these big gaping mouth front ends to be over.
They may be functional, but they're fugly.
The most beautiful sports cars on the road today manage to get enough air to the engine and cooling systems while maintaining a sleek, aerodynamic shape.
Close your mouths!

I voted for before Happy but I really don't mind the after either, kinda like that touch of blue at the bottom.

If its a headache to bring it back, I'd leave it as is but I do think before is "slightly" better

Car looks great though!

BigT · 05-06-2013, 11:53 AM

Not sure why, I like after.

wait. we are hijacking the thread. good way to get "iggy'd"....back on topic!

uhmm.I like it with the blue on bottom (although I already told you taht like three pages ago!

kenchan · 05-06-2013, 12:36 PM

the all black is fine, my car is like that, but im using the reflection to bring back the silver color to do the same thing mr.happy did with physically painting the blue.

if you look at my front picts, mostly all of them have the silver reflection at the bottom to give it the finished look.

speedfreek · 05-06-2013, 12:37 PM

Either all black or all blue. There is no in between. Since you blacked out the fangs I would have to go with before. If the fangs were not blacked out I would go blue. What is this in between business anyway

To be fair, the in between look (blacked fangs and blue chin) does channel the GTR look a bit.
