just an idea

Well I was messing around on photoshop and had an idea, only thing would be is I would have a ram air hood (firehawk/ws6) on this. Also the roof and hatch would also be painted black. I'm a little iffy about it. Comments?

Unique, but I think its a little overkill. What would you do with the rear end scheme? I think the single anniversary stripe up the middle starting with the firebird nose emblem in black would look nice.

Yea, I like how they only painted the scoop and left the area of the hood that goes up into the "nostrils" white. Nice subtle touch.

ULTRA COOL LOOKING for a non Ram-Air hood. Really like the way the Black is carried over onto the roof and then to the back spoiler. Any more pictures of this car?

I would do it like the white one. If you are doing it a flat black, then get some wheels with a nice lip and do the same for the spokes. Would look killer IMO.

Thats the first thing I thought of when I saw the paint idea. I saw that car in person at the auto show in NY years ago lol


SupermanX24, I think the look is cool, Maybe try different shades of dark colors instead of the black to make it a little less contrasty. Maybe a charcoal metallic, or even a navy blue or forest green or whatever to keep it in the same color family.

ok, heres a quick deal in Forza. What do you think? I can change the colors if you want to see something else. The last one came out looking really good, I took the layout and used that color shift paint and used a dark cherry base and the design in medium purple
