Opinions on which design (SVO clone.....ish)


ok, so within the next few years I plan on compleatly overhauling my car, and pretty much just keeping the originaly chassi. I have already begun searching for some of the rarer parts, but I just want to know the ppl's general opinion on my idea. Please lemme know if the cobra graphic makes it look better or too gaudy.

The color scheme is fords high gloss metallic black, and fords high gloss metallic burnt orange. Fade work where shown in the design.

For parts:
Abs exclusive cobra r molded chin spoiler front bumper
Billet upper and lower grille
KBY custom cobra headlights & fog lights (not exactly the ones shown but eBay stuff surprisingly enough)
SVO Borla side exhaust
SVO hood
Standard cobra rear spoiler ( has that little upsweep in it)
2003 cobra r 18" rims.
Lowered stance to match ( but performance will be a whole nother thread)

Thanks,
UnSungHero48

What? No custom orange wheels to match the striping?

Seriously though, it looks good except for the chrome grill inserts. I think I'd go with black so they blend in rather than pop out. Maybe Black Chrome wheels too? Or even just a nice set of black bullitts with a lip on the rear.

And yes, the cobra graphic just doesn't blend well with the rest of the design. It looks better without it.

Thanks for the replies! I agree that the cobra doesn't trip my trigger but it was a suggestion. And since I am a college guy, what better thing to do then waste endless hours on Photoshop....have no fear! An updated no cobra version with black chromed grill and wheels is coming very soon! And yes the rims are gunna prolly have orange accenting. But only on the outer lip and maybe the inner lug wells....we'll see what we come up with!

finally, the new design. idk if i depicted the black chrome right but i think you guys are right. Black chrome FTW. and ik ik, the rims look kinda shitty with that orange accenting on them, i want to go supper minimal when i actually do them, but sadly gimp2.0 doesn't negotiate with my demands so well.... in any event, here she is!

That was actually a joke. I wasn't serious about accenting the rims. I don't know if i like the chrome rims or black chrome rims better.

no i know it was a joke, but it was actually something that i was considering anyways. since i re-did the design anyways i figured i'd try it. but i want it only on the very outer lip, and only on the indside of that lip if that makes sense... pretty much just a little bit of accenting. The inner lugs was an experiment that failed. lol

and i think that the snake on the grill will actually get painted with the black paint. so that it is a little bit different then the black chrome grill.

and idk, i like the black chrome but i dnot like the black chrome.... im a big fan of simplistic style rims...5 spoke and chromed! but idk, the rims are pretty well the last item on the agenda. So i got a while to think about it...

I thought about that, but I personally like the black out effect on the emblem. But if it were to be done I would leave the depressions inthe emblem black and then the raised parts or the cobra in the orange.
