2fast skyline and rsx
Ok so the rsx was my first attempt at a paint job and the skyline is a work in progress.
Sorry dont have a digital camera and the pics are a bit washed out. Took some more and will have them back in about an hour for some tighter, more detail shots.

The colors on the RSX are really clashy, like a fashion trend out of the early nineties, but I like the Skyline.

I have you to clear coat it, and need a few touch-ups. The skyline is just stock. I think I might have to get the kit to swap the bumper according to the picture. But the rest looks stock. The rsx colors are Miami Dolphin colors. I dont think they clash.

Maybe it's just how they look on my monitor, then. The stock Skyline wheels look a lot better than the movie's, I wouldn't change those.

Are you kidding Joey? Get the wheel upgrade, and use the 6-spoke-silver ones, they will match almost perfectly! Better than the stock, imo!
As for the Skyline: It looks great! I'm not one of those guys who will personally attack you and say you're not being original. Just doing the paint job like that.....awesome!

They'd look more like the movie rims, sure, but the stock R34 wheels are some of the best I've seen on the planet - I wouldn't change them for almost anything else.
I hate chrome wheels.

Thanks for the compliments. I dont think the rims on the skyline are chrome, I think they are just like a dull Alum. I just dont think the gold rims look great with the silver body.

Gold rims? What gold rims? The wheels are silver in the upgrade kit!

I know that the stock Skyline rims aren't chrome; I was talking about the wheel upgrade. They've got a chrome-esque finish.
