Carbon Or Not?

[CIJ]

Alright there,

Ive just bought some new eyelids for my car, they arrived in the Carbon effect, my question is, shall i keep them in the effect or should i get them painted in the plat ice?? Its hard to see what they look like propper cos im colour blind :o

Of coarse i'll not be leaving them stuck on with the parcel wrap tape

and then check the badges at the back of the car because they wouldnt be sure wether it was a Lexi (damn allan partridge) or a chav mobile?

[Kazi]

[Y2Kanjar]

I cant afford the CF bonnet just yet, i was thinking bout running the CF or darker colour through the top half of the car.....

Thats the best help ever :P

Paint them by the sounds of things!!!

[lexus_tom]

They look nasty! Paint'em! :)

Im getting a set delivered from eBay too, and I will certainly be painting them. Unless you have the carbon fibre bonnet with vents in, they will look a bit daft.

[Continunity]

oh dear ***, paint them, PAINT THEM NOW!!

then they will look kool

[Mr Morse]

I have CF eyelids on my Astral Black IS300

And it looks good. Period.

[CIJ]

Its ok everyone......there in the spray shop now, ive said theres no rush for them so he said friday i should get them back!! All silver and no more carbon

[P38Aaron]

i thought they looked good in c/f :D

if you had more c/f on the car then they would be cool, I was going to put c/f browes on my car the continue a c/f vinyl tear along the side of the car, then i realised people would take the p**s out of me so that 5min thought died.

Its good that you will have c/f on your car, nobody will know but you, still cool tho' :D

Also is that corner spats i spy on your avatar?

[spikes]

go for paint,think they stand out like a sore thumb on a light coloured car.

like mr morse said they look great on a black car. :)

[Ellz]

Shud have kept them then got c/f bonnet and grill think matts selling the grill

I was thinking bout having the two tone car, but then i thought maybe not cos of the cost. Oh yeas it is corner spats, they were the first mod on the car......sure we've had a talk bout this before

Nice one fella turbo going on feb ish time depending on when i can get around to fitting it and insurance cannot wait tho so exited

[CIJ]

Well ive finally decided that ive done enough on my house, so i thought i'd go out and fit the eye lids that ive had sat in the back of my car for i dont know how long, so here they are:

But the only thing im not too happy about is when you look at it from above, it looks as though the bonnet has been pushed back and the lights are sticking out :duh:

What do you think??

Cheers Chris

[lee_iceman]

[sorted vti]
