lol looks pretty cool, and deff. different!

Hey i would also like to see some of the mad green worked into the wheels? think it would tie in the bottom half of the car really nice.. Other than that thats a crazyyy lookin coupe!

 

That's cool!

 

Ya, green out the center caps on the wheels! Great job. I've never seen anything like it!!!

 

One of my closest friends (Shaune Z)'s entire car is that color with a flat black hood.

It really stands out, and attracts a lot of attention where ever he goes.
I agree with the others, tie it in with the wheels. Maybe paint the "routed out" groove in the spokes.

 

Personally, I don't like it................but to each his own. It would however look "better" if the center lines of the wheel spokes were painted green to match the rest of the theme.





PS The rear side marker light isn't actually painted yellow........is it?

 

Your friend has a sweet lookin ride! That same flat black color is on our GSX but is a pain to clean! because of it, you cant wash it with soap etc, just dust it and use really neutral waterbased sprays. Otherwise itll wear on the paint and make it swirl etc... (That's how they came out of the factory).

And yeah for the wheels i would say put a green circle around the cap and then the upper lip to keep it from being overwhelming while finishing up the bottom

 

The Green color was called "Big Bad Green" by American Motors in 1969 & 70. They also offered Big Bad Orange and Big Bad Blue (which can be seen in the Quaker Steak Car show photo). Many people think it's Chrysler's "Sublime" green, but AMC offered it first in 1969.
The black hood treatment was called a "Shadow Mask" hood option, and was actually a "satin" finish that could be polished or waxed.
Sorry, didn't mean to steal the thread.

 

Eeekk! I would nevverrr wax or polish it lol, well then again i guess thats because were super careful considering how much it would cost to re-do the hood. Good history, Didn't know they called it a Shadow Mask though. Sounds pretty cool haha

And uhhh so i dont feel bad about offtopic... Cool car.. again lol..

 

Agree with wheel center line should/could be painted.

 

thanks 4 the great comment!!!

i have some plans 4 the wheels but i only have the car 2 weeks now. i have spent a good bit of my time and money in it in the last 2 weeks so the wheels will be next on the list.

 

Painting the center cap or the groves of the spokes is sooo predictable. Why not be daring and paint just one entire spoke green. Maybe half of the wheel? How about the tire in green and leave the wheel black!

 

Did you lose a bet?

 

I'm speechless...
like the green, kinda sexy look
not sure about the mirrors

 

aahhhhh no.

 

not for me

 

Not my cup of tea, but to each their own.

 

do any one know where i can get green tyres???
i have never seen them before only on motocross bikes.
i wil love to get a set 4 the crossfire

 

Well if ya mean green wheels, then ya there are some out there...

Try :: WTW inc ::

Prob a bit pricey... but you'll get some super great looking fully customizable wheels from them... you'll prob never see a set like yours... may not even be one out there...

Kolme

 

Wow........just wow!!
