Very nice indeed!

Prior to being painted that is, but hey that's my opinion and should not put you off buddy.

I just think they look the business in white.

You really do have a nice car for sure.

I gotta agree with el mate.

The car looks awesome in the pics above the ones with the red trim. It actually looks like it is ready to tear things up!!!!

Bring it back to it's former glory pal. The only way red will stick is if you have some serious decals across the whole of the car.

What d'you have in mind?

I can't help but think that the red on the RalliArt car is far deeper though!

It might be the same red which is 50/50 but it may well be that the base coat under the red was grey or a shade darker which is why the end result is a richer deeper red.

Alloys on the silver, spoils the car. I dont think cheap alloys mixed with decent/expensive cars work.

white car looks great too, should look V.Nice once finished.
again not sure on the alloys.

Yeah didn't like the alloys on the silver one either I did have a set of Rota Torques on it in Gunmetal looked alot better just didn't get any pics of them on the car...

As for the wheels on the white one Work meisters the same that is fitted to the Extreme and also the Zero Fighter I think... so they had to stay..

under the passion red its a white base coat and parked next to a Tommi its a match..:)

Well the decals arrived but I'm not totally happy with them as they follow slightly different lines to the ones advertised

What do you think..

Some how they both look very different.

Aside from the fact that the bumper on the Jap car is different and the door handles are black, it still seems like you are far from identical.

Personally, I have to put it down to lighting which makes the Jap car look pretty awesome!

Go darker with the red on your car and with black door handles you might just be there.

I have to agree with you that the lines do look slightly different but those are the standard RalliArt Decals for sure.

Its the same bumper... Standard 6 bumper with the Zero Fighter lip.

Going to sort the door handles out soon..

As for the decals just waiting for them to get back to me with a reply...

I agree that the lip is the same but the zero fighter bumper is a little more aggressive looking and does add to the whole look.

I think you are well on the way to getting a close match.

The fact that the lighting makes the Jap car look a little pearl grey may be what is throwing the look of your car a little off key.

You're almost there anyway buddy!!!
