I want your guys opinion!

ok, so im goin to be on a bugdet after a while. once the summer is over im goin back to TRUE part time at my job instead of workin full time hours on part time status...so that means ill be on a budget. well anyways, what i was thinkin, was because o this, and me wanting to do something a little bit different. i was thinkin about doing the following:

Painting the car a Matte Black/hot rod color: i remember seing a 3rd gen on here painted like that and i liked that paint.

Originally had the intention of dropping a gsr engine into the good ol RS, but cuz of the budget, im thinkin of doing just a b20, usually cheaper to do.

i was also thinkin about putting on my old 15 inch fitipaldi wheels back on it afer i get them refurbished ( curb rashed to hell and back) but i was also either thinkin about paintin them either gold with a polished lip or red with a polished lip.

i want to do all this just to give it all just a different look!

here is a pic of my car and then an older pic of my old rims:

what would yall think?

if i were you i would leave it red, and use the money for the gsr engine, or better yet for the b20. even better, just build the ls. concerning those beautiful fittipaldis, i would paint them black or gunmetal with a polished lip.

eh, i duno, i was thikin about paiting them black when i originally had them on them, but i have to get them refurbished because their all severly curbed so i have to send it off too a place. i wana do somethin differnt to the car, i would love to leave it red, but i eventually gotta get the lips painted cuz the red parts of the lip are a different color them the actualy car. as far as the engine goes. the ls i have in there now, it has almost 192k on them so i need to either rebuild it, or just completely swap it with somethin else. i figured a b20 would be good as well as cheaper

Thats probably me! I say go for it but keep in mind that theres a whole selection with flat, metallic, and pearl flatz. Since its red I say go for the Carnival Red Metallic Flat.

No.

All white.

 

[jayelowell]

you should convert your front to a 00 front and sell me your current lip! lol

 

[deddth]

No.

All white.

that's also a good option. but as far as the body color i'll leave it red if i were in a budget. and then i'll use the whole dough for the engine build.

 

[blacknightteg]

aint no way im paintin them all white, i dont like all white rims, never have settled on me. im still debating on the painting it, but i do wana do something differnt with it, and ill also never change it to an 98 plus front, i like the older front better, more race oriented looking them then 98 plus IMO
