Spartan GL's Build Thread: (09-21-14) New photos!

Re: Spartan GL's (01/30/12) PG 27 I have the GTP back from the Painter!!

Paint looks great...but painting the entire front bumper the same color makes it look like you had Joe Blow paint it down the street in his backyard...WHERE IS THE CONTRASSSTTTT
 


Re: Spartan GL's (01/30/12) PG 27 I have the GTP back from the Painter!!

I agree with no contrast with the lower bumper/facias. The paint does look amazing. If it were mine id maybe do a red pinstripe around the facias, some red gpo grills would look sick. black housed retros, and a light smoke on the tails. Also please keep your tires shined 24/7 with the shiniest of shiny shine you can find lol

That was the interior and the engine bay.

I'm talking EXTERIOR.

Bumpers should be gray/silver and whatever other color you went with.

Think i should put the Ram Air decals back on the SD hood?
 
Re: Spartan GL's (01/30/12) PG 27 I have the GTP back from the Painter!!

Nope. Just the grill inserts...

If you do put something on the sides of the hood-scoops, make it something unique
 
Less is more and unless you have an slp intake than its not a real ram air

no such thing as a "ram air" on a FWD car, it just a gimmick

if the OP likes it all black then thats what it should be, why should he build a car based off strangers opinion on an internet forum?

no matter how you design it, its still a grand prix, i mean come on lol, lets be real here
 
Re: Spartan GL's (01/30/12) PG 27 I have the GTP back from the Painter!!

looks great though bro, do your thing! and if your asking for advice from ppl on the interwebz then you shouldnt be building a car in the first place, do YOU, be YOU

eh i'm on the fence about subtle things like what i was talking about.

Major choices i always make myself.
 
Re: Spartan GL's (01/30/12) PG 27 I have the GTP back from the Painter!!

Get a nice decal made up saying something like "Gen V" or similar. So it'll leave 90% of people confused, but those that get it will think it's awesome.

Re: Spartan GL's (02/02/2012) PG 28 Brake Setup photos! and New Grillz

I was afraid when I saw "new grillz" in the title, but I'm satisfied, considering I also have the SS black chrome. Chrome or brushed grilles are honestly just obnoxious and stand out to much.
