O.K. So I just bought the Jacquemond Wide Body Kit becuase I found it from this guy for HALF the price of MSRP. I'm in the process of installing it and am having difficulties deciding what color to paint it after i'm done.

Red=Maybe
Black=Maybe

The only problem is that with red and black there are already so many red and black cars out there. So i'm leading towards

Burnt Orange=The color of the new 350Z's
or
White=A Pure White

I thought about a dark or olive green and even yellow but I don't know how good those would look on this car.

Tell me what you guys think what color would look best. Here's a pic of a car with that body kit.

damn that's an ugly kit. Looks like a miata in the front. But I would paint it black if I were you.

that kit is way to fast for a slow ass 240 lol.... i hope your car has the balls to back it up. i say white, its the best to hide dirt, and looks really nice when its washed and waxed... my 240 is pear white.

i sure hope that was less then $500 bucks.. and you got some really good headlights, cuz going that extreme on the body and still have 6054 standard lights would sure suck.. looks pretty cool in red tho

black hides the kit more, something brighter would definately shows it off more. I would also agree with white, but I like white cars. hope u have clearcorner light kit with the two projector , becuase that setup would match that kit. and definately have some power under the hood or else it just like have a fiero with a lambo kit

Yah I was actually going to go with this kit as the rear with an S15 Front end conversion but since I was able to get the whole kit for what it would have cost me just for the rear I decided to just do the whole kit. I plan on getting the Eastbear non-pop up headlights. I rebuilt the stock engine just to be able to drive it, but a rb26dett will be going in. (And that swap is not as hard as people say it is. You just need the funds.)

Thanks for the color suggestions i've narrowed it down a little

Black, Blue, and Green are out of the question-like trsilvias said dark colors hide the body kit.

Yellow would be ok if it was the porsche yellow - but i've never really liked yellow cars unless it is a lambo

I'm still thinking about white - but you can only make white cars look so good they never really look excellent

Red would be good but there are still so many red cars all over - I want to be original

Burnt Orange - There are starting to be more burnt orange cars, but I don't think there are to many yet
And plus I saw this 350z on clearcorners and it basically sold me on burnt orange. Here's a pic:http://www.clearcorners.com/products/nissan/350zx3/imgs/featcarG16.jpg
And if you think burnt orange is the right or wrong way to go feel free to say something.

Hiding the body kit would be good... It would make it seem exotic

The front looks like a mazda, the back looks alright! its the big air ducts on the side i dont care too much for. maybe 1 would work for me, but 2 just makes your door look sunk in, especially with the stock door handles. if i were going that extreme, t hey'd be shaved

Maybe you can prove me wrong, but everyone I've seen so far looks worse then a Brash Boy Fang Kitted S14. :cry:

^^^ThatGuy is correct, imo the kit looks like fiberglass ass, and not the nice kind of ass either...

anyway paint it saab lime yellow, it's different, stands out, and i think is a sweet color

No comment about the kit, just make sure you get some wheels to back up those giant fenders, not FN's either.

i've personally always thought this kit was crazy looking...just crazy enough to look good IMO

you better have at least 300 hp to back it up

wow that kit fiero looks good, except for why is the shifter seem to be really high? what you got in there for a motor? Does the motor have any balls?

chmercer
02-27-2005, 11:05 AM
paint that thing black. that way maybe less people can see it. or maybe throw it in the trash? no wonder he sold it for half msrp, nobody else would buy it

papershot
02-27-2005, 11:13 AM
hahaha, that fiero is stupid. the rear fenders are all messed up looking, or maybe its the extreme height of the car. I also wouldn't like my cd player facing straight up and being so far away.

Lime green is fugly... It looks acceptable on that car, at that angle, when its that clean... You put that on a 240 and :barf:, not to mention that when its anything other than perfectly shiny its 10x uglier.

yes that fiero makes me want to puke... But it's not his, he posted the link, so for the motor questions how about checking? Its the stock 4 speed fiero motor :)

Am I the only one who think that kit looks like total ASSSSSSSSSSSSSS??? :down:

I feel bad for the 240. :-/

wow most of you guys provide no fucking input what so ever... :bigok:

However,

there is a reason people say the kit looks like ass. in my opinion, all body kits are for show. or u have fuckin sponsors out of ass like d1 people.

I couldnt ever imagine having a kit like that and PUssyFoot my car. being like "oh that will scrape, oh this will scratch" blah blah blah.

i really really would advice against puting that kit on. but if u do pick
any color you like
as long as its black. :2f2f:

Definitely score some tyte wheels, with good offset...

02-28-2005, 09:59 AM
why wouldnt you put the motor in first? now who ever does the swap is gonna hafta worry about scraping/dinging COMPLETELY unnecessary bodykit. its gonna suck driving around getting smoked just for trying to look pretty until the RB is in......

and shit dude, if your trying to make the car ugly, why didnt you save your money and just put on the frickin brash boy fang kit, paint it like paul walker's eclipse and get it over with. what a waste :duh: :rant2: :barf: :rl:

For real.. if you wanted to build a drift car, you'd certainly be unique..

no, you arent the only one. i think you either love it or hate it. i personally cant stand the way it looks, especially the rear panels and miata like front end. but to each his own, its not my money to waste
