    im looking for opinions whether or not this looks nice... i had the idea of doing this a few days ago: blacking out the mitsu symbol with flat red lining and doing the ralli art chrome trimming but painting it flat red as well..

    what do you guys think?? :lol:

    HOW'D U COLOR THE THE CHROME THING??? I TRIED LOOKING EVERYWHERE FOR BLACK ONES BUT THEY ONLY SELL EM IN CHROME.
    the red and black look kick ass, specially on a black car. good choice with the color scheme

    what chrome? the chrome that comes stock on the grill or the chrome thing thats painted red?

    the stock silver chrome: I sanded and painted black..

    the red trimming: It's just a photoshop, not really painted red yet..

    I was thinking about doing that but wasnt sure how it would look. It does look sexy thought and something different. Good job man!

    im really really really digging the red trim around the grill, but personally having it around the mitsu symbol might just be a little too much for me. But i could only imagine how badass that would look having that red trim around the grill. go for it man ^ ^

    I like the red on black. Up by me they sell that custom chrome in red and blue, if they don't have it in the auto part store then ask if they can get it for you.
