Nice, but sell the Cobra and buy a V1.

Looks good, I like that its all one color, and the wheels look really good on your car over the snow flakes. Just not feeling the stickers or the front bumper. If you had a stock R/T ACR bumper it would look amazing.

i have finally planned out a final look for the car. it is way far in the future. but i think it will be what happens.. eventually. dark brown metallic, with a heavy clear coat, with carbon hood and trunk. possibly make the wheels a gold or bronze, but they might stay wilver. with either stock tails, or tinted stock tails, and stock side markers and turn sigs in amber as well. thanks for the compliments guys. and noTe... if i could afford a V1.. i would have bought one. but thanks for the tip.

there is never a final look, just when you think you have it perfect you notice a million other things

well, i meant an overall paint idea. since i am always changing my mind, i think i've decided on somethign that i really liek, and that i have not seen on a 2gn yet.

well dark brown mettalic hasn't been tried on a 2gn yet or any car for that matter (to my knowledge) because it look ugly! IMO of couse, to each his own... I think you should get a deep blood red mettalic.

I think it says 2003

P.S. The rime look nice, but i agree with the comment about the front bumper.

thought of that more than once.

also thought of flat black though.

as for the bumper, i would love to have an R/T bumper, but i can't afford one. and i love my bumper, it's custom.

:lol:

Hey neonkid, did you have to do any type of conversion to get those wheels to fit? I thought the srt wheels didn't fit on a regular neon...?

Anyway, looks good like that dude.

Frizbe · Post by **Frizbe** » Mon Mar 14, 2005 8:39 pm

the only "conversion" is a set of new tires, or you can just deal with the tire rub of the stock SRT tires.

JustANeon · Post by **JustANeon** » Mon Mar 14, 2005 9:03 pm

or spacers

bingo.

i was gonna run the factory 205/50s, i even bout a bfh (big fucking hammer) but i figured they'd clear, then we set the car down and i drove around the parkign lot and realized, no frickin' way. the rear tires rubbed lke a mofo. i took it to the tire shop and the whole way there smoke was rolling from the back. it was terrible, got the Toyo 205/40s, and it has no more issues. they wheels are a direct bolt on, requiring no modification, it's the tires that are too big for a regular neon.
