Re-phrasing Guitarman's post - finally someone agreed with me about it.

And yeah the color is great; how much was the damage?

I hear ya but at the same time i don't...reason is, i kinda like them...everyone is taking them off, so i'll be different and leave them on..also, I think the side of the car would look bear without them...either way, i like them, thanks though...




finally someone that agrees with me that they look good on there!



..i've thought of putting them back on aswell...i like them

For pre-98s anyways, I feel ding guards look good breaking up a smooth profile. Doesn't look bad with that color, either.

Reason I say that about ding guards is because the side of my car would look wayyy too flat without them. Pre-98 ding guards are round, so they look good

I like the color, too.

I am not attached to the badges actually...they were actually off the car in the beginning and I said GREAT, but then when I went to pick it up they were back on...I was like wtf...so after a month, I'm going back to them and they will take them back off...
My plans for the sideones are to put sidemarkers in them (audi's I believe are a common favorite)...
The back ones will come off, but I still want Mystique on the car somewhere because I want people to know that's what it is...I am big about keeping the identity of the car...so check out this idea: You know how Mustangs have that writting on their skirts? I was thinking something like that...but instead, say Mystique in some crazy fancy writing...sounds weird right, but everyone thought this color would be weird too...

I think I like it..I'm most definitely impressed...

is it possible for you to do a bunch of different writing styles on it and then email it to me or post it and we can make a better decision...if i had the skills in photoshop to do that i would, but since I don't i would most definitely appreciate it if you came up with some stuff...let me know...thanks..(reyesy13@yahoo.com)
