Default Need opinion please!!!!!!!!!!!

Normally i would make these types of decisions myself, but i am going to get some opinions for once.

PLEASE ONLY GIVE YOUR HONEST OPINION!! THIS IS NOT SET IN STONE YET, SO YOU CAN NOT HURT MY FEELINGS!!

I really didn't want anyone to know what the car was going to look like, but oh well.

Tell me if you like this or not- i am still trying to decide on colors but they are really easy to change-
I also want to make sure that everyone "gets" a certain part of it.

Honestly. I like it. I actually was picturing you doing something more wild on it.Is that suppose to look like cf? If so , it will be different.

Of course I will like it as it has no tailpipes

Are you thinking of painting the wing to match as well?

One last thing I see wrong with the picture is that there is no battery cutoff on the rear

yes- it is carbon fiber- it fades to black in the back and the wing, wing struts, parachute mount, etc will all be powdercoated black.

lol- no parachute either and the wheels aren't right. probably some other stuff.
the wheels will be anodized black, the ring on the beadlock will match whatever colors i decide to go with.

I like the first and the last ones the best. I've seen other cars with similar colors on the 3, 4, 5 & 6. I'm personally not crazy about black wheels unless there is a decent amount of other accent color on them as well (I know you mentioned that). I like it simple. I love the scheme, though.

I like the concept. I REALLY like the riveted steel plate behind the carbon fiber. Who did the imagining? Looks like some of Todd @ Six4Designs work.

2, 7, 8 are the ones I like. Are you doing a full wrap or is it paint?

some people love black wheels, some people really hate them- i happen to love them. the first thing i picked out for my car the day i bought it was black wheels.

full wrap. but i still have a ton of paint to do. i am painting everything on the car that the wrap will not be on. painting entire bottom of car, all wheel wells and tubs, all the cage, engine bay, everything. all of the parts on the car will either be powder coated or anodized.

I think black rims with Gold rings would look pimp to.

#2 looks the best IMO. If you want a color instead of the rivets, then #1.
