Default Chin Center Painted - Pic's Inside - Advice on Spoiler

Here is the CDC Chin with the center painted to match the stripe.

I like the front of the car. I really think I'm going to have the roof painted.

I also ordered the headlight tint and a pony emblem cover. Getting it for $12.99. Will be black with a skeleton pony.

Question is... do I just need to add some side scoops with the sliver of black on the back/side of the car or should I paint the spoiler?

Please let me know what you think.







Side shots......what to do seems like it needs some black out back.....

You are right as it seems to be missing something towards the back of the car. Might be worth while to have a few things photo chopped like a black rear spoiler or black side window louvers or maybe some type of side stripe like one that follows the door and rear panel line??

But your car does look great!!

Looks great as is..... Only thing to maybe do is paint the rear spoiler black and add some rear window aluminum louvers

Looks fabulous!! First time seeing the chin painted with the gloss black, and I do have to admit, I was a little hesitant on the outcome, but it looks great!

Now, when you say about painting the roof, do you mean the entire thing, or just continuing the stripe?

As for the rear, your spoiler wouldn't look right with it painted entirely black. Maybe just continue the stripe like you did the hood. Stopping right at the base of the spoiler. And then maybe get a CS rear end and paint the valance a gloss black so it would match the chin.

That's just my suggestion. I always try to balance out the front and back end.

Either way, your car looks HOT now!

I think side scoops would look sweet. I don't think the spoiler would look good painted. Can you post a pic from the rear? I love the stance.

Looks great but i agree that something is missing. I dont think I would paint the spoiler black tho unless its with the stripes going all of the way back.

I wanted to do the top of the roof but the more I look at it I really can't do that with a stripe on the hood. I would have to have the stripe re-done wider to the edges of the grill. Then I still have the rear issue. I like the stripe on the hood only and don't want to take it over the car.

I may add the scoops next. I could do the Steeda street wing with black winglet's. That would look cool but that is pushing it as far as keeping it understated. I don't want to look like the fast and furious.

I do secretly want that wing.

How about a vinyl insert for your bumper? https://www.rockymountaingraphics.co...&search=&page=
Or you could just paint it, obviously lol
EDIT: By the way, I hate to throw more ideas in your head but I can't help but look at that first side shot and think how awesome some Agent 47 mirrors would look on your car
