i think you have a beautiful thing going. especially the turbo too hehe. Your kit is great looking, but i'd ditch the decals and the red mesh asap. just my opinion

yeah but i see so many people with this body kit and either have silver grill or no grill.. if they have no grill, to me it looks incomplete.. if its silver.. i think it doesn't go well with black..
thanx for the input.

interior and engine are looking great! imo, the front looks weird without sides, and i'd get some rims eventually. definitely liking the way it comes along. oh, and the company decals need to come off imo! lol but it looks good overall :)

i would paint the rims black or pick up a new set off of wheelmax.com for $500 with tires

looks great to me, i would just either loose the red theme on the exterior or change it to white.
also, id get rid of the spoiler, but thats just my thing. i think eclipses are like girls: best when they shave thier backside and have thier holes filled. ;) (damn...i need to make that my new sig qoute, lol!) }(

Looks good man - it's got a nice style going with the red on black. I would get some nice 18 inch black rims with a red lip. It would be mean man...

Like most have said great looking car but, drop the stickers. I feel that unless your getting a check for it I wouldn't give them free advertising.

I'd ditch all the red stickers, otherwise looks good.

i'd also ditch the stickers and change the red grill to silver. I'm not sure why you think a silver grill doesn't look good on black cars. This is mine (the grill wasn't done the best) and i think it looks alright
|
58730, RE: how do you guys think my car looks? Posted by eclipticrider, Oct-01-03 12:36 PM
i like the first ones... then loose the stickers, it makes the car look cheap imo... the grille looks ok but if i were you i'd try a few different colors and see what you like best, who knows u may end up liking silver, a black grille would look good too...

hey siueclipse, what are you running? 2.0L or 2.2L?

58943, RE: how do you guys think my car looks? Posted by SolarYellowEclipse, Oct-02-03 04:21 PM
Ok, those stickers have to go... the tribe has spoken. ;-) I say ditch the grill altogether and maybe polish the IC. Swap out for some bronze wheels with a nice polished lip to match the IC... like this clearance wheel/tire combo at www.speedandstyle.com:

For $600, you can't go wrong and they would look sweet as HELL on black (or almost any other color).
Other than that I thing the red is a little over done in the engine bay... it's not bad but just too much for me. Overall, your car is sweet tho. :thumbsup
|
58952, RE: how do you guys think my car looks? Posted by Mannyyy, Oct-02-03 06:23 PM
Looks pretty sweet... but I'd get rid of the red stickers as well. And uhh, replace them with white ones. I personally like the stock front better. So get that and put a nice silver 3-piece Grill Craft on it. Hmmm, oh! and get some 18's with a polished lip. That'd look sweet. Yep! ;) :thumbsup
Then our only difference would be your car has around 3 times as much hp as mine. x(

I like it dude, very nice and sleek lookin', I had the evo front on mine too and had to take it off because i lowered it an 1 1/5, the intercooler lookes very nice with that bumper....did great job with fog lights too i know there a biotch to line up perfectly with the holes...........looks very cool dude,wouldn't change a thing....
this a honduh to your eclipse.....:bowdown
P.S. you should put on front bumper just above the intercooler opening "don't get sucked in"

If every Eclipse looked the same.... then it would be a very boring world for us.... Looks BAD ASS!!!! Just with your Turbo and the 329WHP. YOU DON'T NEED TO SAY ANYMORE.:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

59040, RE: how do you guys think my car looks? Posted by xEclipsE RaceRx, Oct-03-03 06:37 PM
I really love your engine bay :thumbsup and the red onthe outside is a lil too much contrast...but hey look at me

it looks good. although dont like the spaceship taillights... the stickers would be ok, but the started going across the bottom and middle. the banner along the bottom should go, and the piaa working its way up the middle of the door should go.
the red and black theme look really good IMO.
and if you're going to go with black rims, make sure they have a polished lip.
from the pics of your rebuild, your engine and engine bay are immaculate. EVERYTHING has been cleaned and painted in there.
seriously though man, you have one of the nicer cars on the forum, show and go wise.

Engine bay looks awesome, gauges look awesome, I kinda like the red stickers on the outside too...I'm not a big fan of those tail lights, although they don't look horribly bad on your car, are they cf lights? Also not a big fan of that front bumper, if you decide to go with a body kit maybe bc2? Also, gloss black rims would look dope

just lookin at the pics again and a Powdercoated Valve Cover would just set it off:thumbsup
