Not with the gold rims. Get some black rims and I say go for it.

You've got my approval...

no, and it's been played out on little ricer cars already.

hahaha im doing it already! it will look good IMO
So thats what you're up to! Are you going red??? :eek:

Maybe with something extra, but not just with a solo black top.

Now, the b&w set up in the back ground looks awesome. :rollingla

then his car would look like mines! nOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! :eek:

i think you should leave it alone..might end up looking like a lady bug..haha j/k..i think black tops should stay on black cars..

i'm with xdeedubbx haha. if you get a black top, make sure to have a black bottom.

everyone who sees my car always asks how it would look with a black top, i was just messing with the idea, no plans of actually doing it.

but i dont think it looks bad.

I seem to recall another member doing this.

Thank you tigerlee for posting that i was looking for that...IMHO, i think it looks terrible with a black top, unless it was like a full carbon fiber top like the E46 CSL or GTR i believe than that would be sick..

dude, why you trying to see his pubes? your gross danny..haha
LOL, you guys have too much time on y our hands.

i know...it is sad...i need a more exciting job..hahah

What do you do?

The veilside blacktop theme is subjective i think........

but i think this looks freaking hot....

Just scanned it out from my Japananese RX-8 magazine... picture of a club member's car in Japan :)

haha it looks awesome to me

What do you do?
IT shit, and a technician for a major computer component company...so boring...what do u do moos?

Underwriter for a health insurance company. Our rating system is so slow, I have a lot of free time between screens.

we should have a work thread. for whos at work and got some free time to browse the forum like us haha

wow coulda fooled me... i though your jobs were browsing this forum..

NAY

It's not that it hurts the look of the car..it just doesn't do enough for it to be worth the money. The red paint is already dark enough without black on top of it.

That would be EVERYONE, lol.

i like it.

That would be EVERYONE, lol.

Lol, I'm sure he'll be happy when he sees this.

hahaha im sure he would be lol =P

The guy in Greece has it w/ a black hood and trunk.

nay, the car looks good as is.

Would look great with black wheels.

Can do you do a photoshop of a Winning Blue with black top?

I say NAY, your car looks good already! It would look like it has a toupee :ylsuper: .

It will look good. As soon as I have the cash... i plan on doing it as well, and yes, i've been saying that for a year now.

and heres how it looks in real life on a red car.

i think i remember seeing a yellow 8 at sevenstock with it. looked good on his ride also.

-hS

still not feelin it. looks ok...

neither am i..just leave it alone...some cars can pull it off but definetly not the 8...

i say if you really decide to do it.... might as well do carbon hood, carbon trunk, carbon gas door, carbon vents, carbon mazdaspeed rear, ect...

another bad example of a car trying to do a blacktop

Yes, but only if you get a CF Trunk and Hood to go with.

I like the look but I think I am going to do the opposite.
Do the sides of my Ti. with Black or maybe Stratos blue.

Opposite! As in black on the bottom of the car but TI on the hood top & trunk?!!!

Yes Dom around the sides and front bumper along body line ,top of fenders.
Now the back is a bit of a delima. body line blends in .

It will look good. As soon as I have the cash... i plan on doing it as well, and yes, i've been saying that for a year now.

I am not liking this, when the whole car is blacked out on top it looks much better. like the vielside one on page 1. The car at sevenstock was a guy from arizona and he had the whole top black not just the cabin. I think it breaks the lenght of the car up.

I seem to recall another member doing this.

This paint scheam (sp) is the way to go...but to his is own, i am sure it will be very clean and taste full either way.

Winning Blue would look F'ing HAWT with a black top. Titanium Grey would look great too.

^black too! :hahano:

yes. i agree with tiggerlee. black top looks the best on black.

Take what I said with a grain of salt...

My license plate doesn't say DRKSYDE for nuttin! EVERYTHING will be black on my car. The only things that won't be are the windshield and the headlights.

Just saying that those two colors would match with a black top best. I really don't care that much for the black/red

Dood I think it looks good.. But if you do it you should go O.G. with it and do it Carbon Fiber... Dont do the Hood and trunk Carbon Fiber too looks too ricy and just too much Carbon Fiber.. I like the look It doesnt look bad at all... BTW where did you get the CB Burnout lip from.. How much did you get it for... I am thinking of getting that one or the V2 of that lip...

i like it!

its cool looking, but then you will have to get a cb hood, and ill leave the trunk normal. but i prefer the way you have it now, but both ways look nice (if black top has a cb hood)

it looks good. wonder what it would look like with c/f hood and trunk :]

Discussed doing this with the GF's car and the experienced painter said that it was not a good idea. The problem is the line between the new paint and the existing paint. It can peel unless you clearcoat all of the panels it will be on. The paint break will show. She decided against doing it but I think it looks good.
