I agree about it looking better on a mini truck, or something like that. IMO, it would look better with the colors Rydell mentioned. At any rate, it WILL get looks.

i actually love the back end of it. the side i dont care for but hey if i had the dough i would do some crazy paint job on my ride. all i have to say is he has got some big balls. all now is to get it lowered with 18" rims. might look bit better.

I would like to remind people here at the CEG that it takes great measures by some people to get our cars noticed by the general public. I am embracing this persons choice of paint job based on the fact people WILL be turning their heads and wondering what kind of car that is. Those same people will know that someone shelled out a LOT of money for the looks. This same person hopefully is going to be shelling out some massive cash for go fast goodies.
It's plain and simple: The show car circuit for front wheel drive cars, mainly imports, are looking for this kind of "different-ness".
This paint job was not intended to delight the general public and sure as well not the CEG.
Once people who are TRUE MEMBERS of the CEG realize this, and embrace radical new ideas that can and will promote our cars' status to the aftermarket manufacturers, things will be a lot better.
I'm not saying you need to happily visualise this paint job on your car, just appreciate the fact that someone is just as enthusiastic about thier Contour as you. Maybe more than you.
Just my two cents.

that's insane. as somebody else said, i like the back, but not too much else. it definitely is interesting, and i'm sure it will get the looks. as somebody else mentioned, gotta make it fast too.
