Make my Formula Unique!

[93formulalt1]

I'm also looking into some racing bucket seats, since everyone has GM seats in their cars (lol). I'd like to make the car faster in the future, but for now, I'll go for the shock factor when people see it, as well as getting it ready for some autox action this summer. . .

That looks pretty good, but I was thinking of something about 3" wide, from the front wheel well to the rear wheel well, bottom would be the bottom of the door, extending 3" up from there, much like the Ford GT stripe above. I found some pretty cool "FORMULA V8" vinyls online, maybe I'll incorporate that into the stripe design as well.

I'll be getting started on this within a couple of weeks, so keep the suggestions coming!

corner blackouts if you havent already done so (im just looking at your sig)

Yep, that was done last spring. I don't have photoshop anymore, so I can't get another sig made until I get my hands on another copy.

My feelings is you shouldn't go stripes..

I say.. Tint the windows, Tint the side markers, Tint the rear lights, and like said before.. A killer exhaust.

I'd like to see a photoshop of those GT stripes with the Enzo stripe on the car in other colors than black. I'm thinking white since everybody does red/black. Heck just in Adrian, there are 2 red/black birds! Then Meissen, then me, then tony... You get the point. I have not seem many red/white birds and white paint is cheap.

Yes, but I've already started my red/black theme. The reason it's so common is because it is a KILLER color combo. I think that if done right, it will be unique, and it will look good.

As I have already mentioned in an earlier post, I have already tinted the taillights and markers. I would go ahead and tint my windows, but the Adrian Police are notorious for writing tickets for tint. Not the nice fix-it tickets, but actually tickets that cost lots of money. A friend of mine got over $200 in tickets in 1 week for tint. The second ticket she was actually on her way to get it removed!

Tinted windows are a no-go, I don't need any more reason for the cops to keep an eye on me.

you can still get the back one tinted...

black wheels would look good too

[JoeliusZ28]

get the back window tinted at the very least.

Ive been driving my truck around with 15% on the sides (looks like limo) since december and i havent even had a cop look at me funny yet.

Maybe I'll go for it then. It won't be for a while, since I've got a couple of other projects coming up first, but it will be this summer. Nobody thinks stripes would look good?

A truck is a little different than a red sports car

However, I did drive that red trans am with 5% all-round last summer never had problems

I DD my car, BTW. It's about as much of a whore as Brian's car. Taking it to the Humane Society to get checked out today, the Free Clinic started turning us away at the door lately.

[JoeliusZ28]

yea i think red is the one color i would be afraid to tint, it really stands out.

something like Joel said with stripes that fade, similar to the 30th anniv. camaro stripes.


and if your going for "unique", everyone does honeycombs, I saw this one transam with clear tail-lights,

or i like the blackouts on my formula

the "clear taillights" you saw were photoshopped, and not acctually possible. I kinda like joels idea, but best bet is to have some photoshops of your car to decide what you would really like before throwing money into it.
