I know it is different, some may say not even pleasing to the eye "Why not black?". I gotta be different in some way, that's just me. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204

But if people get the black blocks and the rest of their car only has black tires as far as having black goes...... Why not? I dunno if it is noticeable, but the blocks are the exact color of the rims. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204

I like the idea.. but think you'd need more red to pull it off... here's a couple rough ideas I had:

Thanks for that. I still need a lip kit, so I might consider that red. Then again, I think it just takes adjusting. Ever noticed how a white car can have a black hood, and black blocks, but that's all the black it has and it is acceptable? The eyes are not used to other colors. That's how I felt about my rims and I ended up keeping them and now people in my town try to copy me by the majority of them getting red rims. Seriously. I never thought I would get so many compliments on them as well.
I will give it some time. I still have yet to get my crew logo (my sig without the font) on my car. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204

that red stripe down the middle would look good! Urg, no! Looks like the A-team! I quite like the red. I think painting the silver/white bits of the wheels black would be an improvement. Also, perhaps a darker red? Might be interesting to do a photoshop of the bonnet grille and upper bumper grille in the same red also.

I think this looks good dude, i think the main problem im having is i normally see the blocks black or color-matched (on non black cars), and to see it not black on a black car, its just different. Not bad different at all though.
I do agree that you could use some more red on the car though... -------------------- ◊◊◊ My F/S Thread! ◊◊◊

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.

^^^ Both of you need to simmer down. This is MY thread with my strange looking choice of riser blocks, yet complete GT4 exterior (whoops, forgot the fenders). If you guys wanna argue, you can message each other about it or put it aside right now.
