what do you guys think of something like this?(im just toying, engine comes first). only half decent black ex pic i could find, i envision the lil addon lips, i just had to re-saturate the stock stuff in this pic.

if you saw a black ek with dark red lips/skirts and pinstripes(maybe black/red rims[the black ones with a lil lil bit of red, nothing like the ones in the pic]). whats it register on your personal clean/non rice cool-o-meter.

i dotn remember if it was in the orig ver or the edit, but read what i typed. this is a crappy ps edit, i covered that the wheel idea is nothing like the pic. id never paint steelies/hubs.

the pic is to let you imagine it, not to be taken literally. anyway i couldn't live with myself prolly as much on rims as half the cost of a HMT, even if i already had the HMT. ill prolly end up with either the honda alloys i have now or simple cheap black rims.

add: possible with a 1" drop or so, nothing too low. even tho im not gunna do much if any ascetic work before the internals have gotten more than their fare share or attention, im just working on ideas of what i was her to look like down the road even more.

I don't like it...it'd have to be a very dark red for me.

the lips would not look to bad but a all red rim with them would look horrible, now a red rim with polished lip maybe ... but not really, i would do a satin wheel with a polished lip or gunmetal. but either was i am not diggin the pinstripe idea

its not bad, but i wouldnt go with red wheels at all. for my colors im going with a dark metalic blue with black lips and carbon fiber hood. you should see how that looks. you might like it.

EE I'm not digging the red lips at all, doesn't really flow if you ask me.

I like the red...just not on the wheels. It'd look real nice on some black spoke wheels and a red pin stripe on the lip of the rim
