[Redturbo]

Alright everyone, I'm having an issue. So far, the only thing negative i could say about my/our cars is...what can you do to make the appearance better?
Now, i will say, these cars are absolutely beautiful as hell, even straight from the lot. But, with my previous cars i've always found some way to modify the appearance of them. I've ran into this issue of not knowing exactly WHAT I could do to this car..

I've done the "eve mod" on the front with black plasti dip, changed the badges and added the gloss vinyl roof...so...now what?
I've thought about plasti dipping the wheels, but i already love the polished smokey color that they come with.
I've also thought about tinting the tail lights, like i've done with previous cars, as well as the reflectors.
I've never owned a red car before this one, and personally never liked red on a car. But, its such a beautiful red, i couldn't turn it away. So, usually i would go black out everything, but i don't want to take away from the clean look that this car has going for it.

So, i'm asking for suggestions/opinions. I LOVE plasti dip, but literally can not think of one place other than wheels/evo mod that i could use it on. I've looked at every angle of my car thinking of ways to put some dip on it, but truthfully, my imagination isn't very well.

any suggestions, feel free to post!

Option 1 : Remove the front grill and install a HUGE FMIC !

Option 2 : Install a small spoiler.

Option 3 : body kit ?

Not much. Wheels, drop it, body kit.

In all honesty, leave the plasti-dipping to a minimum. I think you have done enough.
That trend has gotten out of hand, and it is starting to become too much for me.

You be surprised what a drop and some small wheel spacers will do for the car. 5 and 10mm spacers will be part of my product line, and the car's "stance" will look so much better, more aggressive.
Once a nice front lip comes out, you could get that. I am a big advocate on factory styling and not gaudy looking kits. Sometimes a nice front lip is all it takes.

Agreed. I want a lip and a minor drop as soon as funds permit. I love the factory styling. Wouldn't have purchased if I didn't, but either way, if a modification doesn't look like it was a possible option from the factory, it shouldn't be done.

Lip kit, lowering springs, spacers with hopefully wider front wheels to support the power gains I expect from the SRI/FMIC/Exhaust, HIDs, LED license plate lights, interior lighting, maybe a slight Plastidip design on the sides in flat gray/black.

has anyone installed floor lights yet?

I plan on doing a front fascia transplant if it's possible. The Pro Ceed GT just looks the business. The new Optima has those cube fog lights / DRL that's on the Pro Ceed GT as well so it's a matter of sourcing them and may be a bumper replacement.

If I could only read Korean enough to order this,

Ok, the fifth link down from here, is what I want even if I have to go to Korea myself. That front end conversion looks amazing.

From that being said, I like the aggressive stance to cars. Especially hatchbacks. Throw on some mud flaps, lower it a little, wider tires and spacers. Thats about all I would want to go for. Unless, I can find somebody who knows Korean to help me order that front end. I think I am in love! Oh and some tint. Nobody hates tint unless you slap 20's on the car.
