take off the side strakes, and fake air vent, and make the door handles body color...
the pics i would like to be used can be found in this thread:

https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...ad.php?t=11679

please and thanks in advance.

 

Does this help?

 

Here's another...

 

Here is another one.

Your original photo did not have too much detail to work with.

 

hhhmmm i think it looks great, anyone know what the side fins and fake air vents are put on with?

 

I believe the vent part of the fins is recessed into the fender. You'd have to patch it if you removed them.

 

i recall someone on here mentioning that they were just put on by adhesive, hopefully someone will know the answer.

 

Pasties...

 

no holes, or anything...just glue huh?

if this is the case, i think i might pop them off, and use some goo gone, and a hair dryer

 

wow that looks like absolute crap.

 

??? What looks like crap ???

 

I agree with mayaman taking the side vents off (even though they're not functional) and changing the door handles to body color really upsets the flow of this car. In my opinion, but if you do it I would be eager to see the photo's that haven’t been photoshoped.

Added for FPMartinez.

 

LOL, thanks for the smiley.

Will we hurt anyone's feelings if we say we don't like it?

 

I was asking because he did not specify what he didn't like. Taking away the vent makes it kinda "PLAIN JANE" to me but I didn't mind the painted door handles to bad and if someone put the chrome plates behind the handle it might really look good. Maybe...

 

I much prefer it with the vents...
I think it looks naked...

 

Put some real tall skinny tires on it, with some spun aluminum disc wheel covers, and ya could take it to the Bonneville Salt Flats.

 

Now, if the car came that way, you would be looking to add side fins and chrome handles.

 

While I like the idea of side strakes on the Crossfire (a tie with it's MB heritage), I think the
current ones are ill fitting and look very cheap up close. The leading edge of the strakes are
not even flush with the body.

I have been toying with the idea of having them removed completely or somehow re-worked.
IMO, the car doesn't look all that bad without the side strakes. My photochop version...

 

ben ~ much better photoshop ... and color to work with. clean pic. nice job.

 

Ben47, could you Photoshop your photo of the SSB Crossfire without the strakes, but still retain the black vent? I think that may look pretty good.
I think it looks just too naked with nothing behind the wheel well.
