99Blackhatch... Finally a build thread.

Post by 99BlackHatch »

Took the car out last night. Got the whole front end painted all green and the green is growing on me again... BUT I already ordered the wrap and it's ready for install. It might all be done by Friday.

I'm thinking of going with the black accents again like I did before...

but this time keeping the hood the matching color of the car and the roof black. Front and rear lips would be black along with the side moldings and the side skirts. The mirrors would looks the same too... different color car though.

I think it would look great.

dont be a whiny cry baby cause the pic i responded to your "hater-aid" with looked like Hellen Keller took "rhino lining" and just went to town and it doesnt look good, its my opinion sir i have higher standards i guess and dont see the need to tell someone else their bay looks like shit when you clearly have no fucking room to talk. now you may continue to whine and cry bout some "outlander not from the gangsta stl:cheers2:" saying your engine bay sucks and be all like boo hoo wooh is me.. if i was you i would post a pic of your engine bay and shut me up, if it does look hella dope then i will look really stupid but it dont see an updated pic really doing anything for that bay.

Black roofs look good tho

My comment of the engine bay above was sarcasm. I know it will get attention. Either people will like it or hate it. That is fine. I didn't build it for them, I built it for me and what I plan to do with the car. And that pic was a terrible pic of the bay, but now that the car has fenders, headlights, the intake and box on and such... I think it looks better than the picture commented on before where there was wiring everywhere and the full engine setup wasn't all there.

And with all the part being installed and removed and reinstalled and such on the car just so I can make sure it is being done right. If I drop a tool or two and it hits the rhino lining and bounces off and no scratches or scrapes or anything. Works for me. This car isn't being built for "UBER status" or HELLAHFLUSH" or whatever. This is going to be caged and track raced. It is going to get beat up and torn up. If I wanted camber, I wouldn't have installed camber kits to get rid of camber so I can get more traction on the road. :)

But it should help now that I have all the wiring done and tucked for the most part until I can actually spend some time and really tuck it into the fenders. Otherwise I'm not too worried about the wiring.



Tommy, I know what you mean. I like the all 1 color look too, but with the entire car being the same color, there is nothing to break it up.


Example...
I think this looks good for what it is...

I think this is a little too color and not enough to break it up to be honest...
Image

Maybe if I just do the lower lips and side skirts and o the side moldings to match the body it will turn out fine, but the good thing with vinyl is I can do all the testing and changing I need until I find the perfect look




Note: I'm not mad or hating on anyone. My car is mine, your car is yours. Hate on mine or like it. Doesn't matter to me. It's expected to bring both...



Love,
Joshua

A lot of people were telling me to paint my sideskirts the body color on my car, I kept telling them it would clash to much. To much of the same color on the car is just too much, need some black to break it up like you said.

I think the jdm moldings make it look "off", we are used to seeing those in black. If the bumpers were USDM it would actually look better all painted I think. The CRX pulls off black trim MUCH easier than a later model hatch.
