I like it but I probably would like it even more if it was all one color...

Very true..

I was thinking maybe adding a graphic kit so the black front bumper and black spoiler didn't look so out of place.

I don't know if that will help. To be brutally honest, it looks like you wrecked it and never painted the replaced parts. :? Not feeling it at all... But as long as the owner is happy!

Hmm..never thought of it like that. :P

Ya, the owner is happy....and doesn't want to fork out the money to get it painted. :wink:

I noticed the top 2 pictures have a different hood than the bottom 2.. I love the color of your car. Get rid of the bottom 2 pictures, and take the same picture with the black hood. I like that color combo alot. (with the black hood that is) You should get the srt-4 wheels painted black. Very nice car.

i like the hood and bumper, but they need to match the car.

i kinda like what you started but i think in order to make the two colors work, you should blend them in better than that.... maybe have part of the fenders painted black and flow on to part of the front doors.... the point would be to break up the lines that are created by the different colored pieces....its hard for me to explain but hopefully you guys understood me. :wink:

If he were to paint the roof and trunk it would actually look like the TNK skunk a little....just playing....If you dont mind me asking did you get the parts painted black or did you get them off a different car cause you got in a wreck...also is the red the salsa red color...orangish red...just wondering

Lol, its great another red and black car. Paint is a biotch. I say, paint the bumper and keep the spoiler black.

Hmm..bumper black..and if i could get some side skirts we'd be set! :)

The bumper is off an 02, my bumper had a large crack in the middle of it due to the previous owner running into the parking stop things.

I really wanted foglights and the updated bumper, and i found the bumper with foglights AND the spoiler for 190 shipped.

I was thinking of getting a graphics kit that would start from the bumper and extend down the rest of the car so it would 'blend' in.

What does everyone think of the car height? I put SRT springs on it and sometimes i think it looks good, sometimes i think i want it lower. Putting the springs on was such a PITA that i don't wanna have to do it again. :P

Your screen name is 2002srt4. I'm assuming it's an 02 with the srt swap? A friend wants to make his srt look like an 02 r/t. :lol:

Honestly, it looks stock height to me.

thats exactly my argument.... i don't consider that a drop... and after all the work you go through to change out the springs... to me, its just not worth going with srt springs.

Ya...although I don't know who you were arguing with. :P

I bought the SRT Springs cuz i didn't want an extreme drop, and i got 'em for 50 bucks. :P

I think i may have bought them in error and i really should have gotten a little lower springs.
