dude, you're ****ing nuts. this car is gonna be amazing when it's finished. custom work is always the best and most original work (when done right). i wouldn't repaint it green though, is that just because your engine bay is green and you want to save some on the painting costs? your rear end especially is gonna be insane, but it looks like this car is gonna be pretty sweet in general. better win some shows if it comes out like i think it will. i can't wait to see the finished product, keep us updated. oh, and please don't put an aluminum wing on there. get a nice painted one  you have some balls (and some connections apparently) man, good luck.

hey wrecked eric... thanks for the input. i do have to ask you something though... do you really think i am painting it green to cut costs, like in the engine bay? i hope not lololol. its actually a verrrrrrrrry different color green than the stock color. the doors are off, the fenders are off, the whole car is apart now. the engine bay will be painted to match. my rule is.... NO CUTTING CORNERS OR CHEESING ON A PAINTJOB because i wouldnt be completely happy if i did that. then it would cost more in the long run and everything wouldnt match perfect if done at seperate times. im very obsessed with quality. i make myself sick sometimes haha. as far as the wing... it looks very high in the pics, but trust me, when the car is together and you see the pics, you'll be surprised at how well it offsets the whole car. fits very nicely. i am not a big fan of those wings, but you'll understand why i chose it after its finished. but again... THANKS EVERYONE.... www.Contour.org will be on my car when its done

yes, definately painting the wing, but im debating on doing it to match the car or the rims and fuel door. so it'll either be green microflake or silver microflake. probably siver, not sure. suggestions?

green, since aluminum wings are usually silver in color the way they come(obviously not the same silver as the paint though), so silver won't stand out as much because people won't be looking for a different color silver. Originally posted by DeanJoyce.com:
