Quick Photoshop I did... opinions?
As most of you know, I've been planning on getting my wheels powdercoated and windows tinted for quite some time, but I want to wait untill I get back to Dallas (early summer). So in the meantime, I did a quick (read: BAD) photoshop job of what I am kinda going for. It looked a bit too much against the bright white roof and mirrors, so I'm thinking of doing the side mirrors in a carbon fiber. I've seen it before and love it.
I have a hard time visualizing these things and the photoshop came out pretty lousy, so I need your opinions. Do you think this will look good or bad?
The first pic is my car as it is currently. The second pic is the bad p-shop of roughly 30% tint all-around, anthracite S-Lites, and carbon fiber mirrors. Try your best to imagine. Be honest. I dont wanna screw with my car if the end result is worse than where I started.
Thanks

Well, you got this funny looking round thing sticking out of your boot
To be serious, and you asked
The CF mirrors would be much darker.
To be honest, I hate the color of the wheels.
IMHO, since i had CR/W and you got the white mirrors, I go with white wheels ... but that is just me if you can handle cleaning them
If you going CF mirrors, you need anthracite wheels. Check out the color of real anthracite R90s and powder coat to that to match the CF mirrors. It would then need the CF scoop to complement the color scheme and the CF bonnet handle (hmm, that sound familiar)
I would try to go close to how my wheels looked here. Forget the checkers, think CF and CF scoop. Just my opinion.

b/c of how you're limited in PS the wheels in the 2nd pick just look dirty lol
And I think between the white roof and white stripes, well its an up hill battle, if you had a CR/B I'd give it
You might get a better idea if you combine photos from other cars that have done the mods already. There is always the option of dumping the S-heavies too.

I know the CF mirrors would look a bit darker, but I suck at PS so thats as close as I could get it. I think they'd look decent againt the CR and anthracite though, dont you?
And ignore the PS....the color of your wheels is exactly what I want. Its just too hard to get the PS to look good.

If you want to go dark, how about a roof graphic and darker stripes to go with the darker wheels & mirror caps? I think the CF caps could be cool and I've seen dark (black Powdercoat) S-lites that are nice, but I think that the white stripes and roof would have to be toned down as well to keep it a package look.

I gotta agree with what most have said... I don't care for darkening the window's, wheels, mirrors when you have a white top & bonnet stripes.
I say take off your bonnet stripes & MBE add a black hood scoop, then add a blk/wht checkered roof decal (the roof decal would make other darker items seem more acceptable). Sorry but I don't like CF on CR at all so I say do black mirror caps. Then the tint & black wheels (not gunmetal) would look good. Well you asked ehh

yes.
You have a tough color combo to dark out the car with, red and white are both immensely bright colors.
I would get a polished/bright silver wheel, not chrome, but a sharp looking wheel with a lip. As close to white as you can possibly get it without it actually being white.
Tint, whatever, I would only put it in there if it's gonna be really dark. But if I were you, what would look way cooler is if you saved up a bit more and bought lowering springs. That would do a lot more to the car style wise than the tints would.
Don't smoke the wheels like that. I can get my wheels that color if I didn't wash them for two years..
has anyone ever tried to paint the arches on the windshield and put white vinyl over the black part of the windows in the back? Maybe even paint the wheel arches white? Although that's probably mad expensive...

I just want a quick, non-permanent make-over....It's not a matter of money. I just seem to be on a role of getting a new car every 1-2 years so I dont want to do anything drastic mod-wise. It would prolly be a waste of money as well as lower the resale value.

Properly done anthracite wheels...
... do not look like dusted-up ones. To wit, the car below...
The darker wheels' ability to, er, camouflage brake dust is an added benefit.
Gotta agree with some folks here that the CR/White combo with a gray wheel might not work. Black is another story though Especially since the overfenders, rockers and fascia lowers at each end are black. Still, black wheels are too much for some people to take.

darken anything on an a XX/White dosnt work to me, unless its RG/W, AB/W or something similar. To have two bright colors then bring in the dark element just seems to take away from the original look of it to me, if you wanted a dark car shouldn't have went with a bright paint. But do whatever you want, its your car, you should enjoy it to the best extent that you can.
