I don't agree completly with ^Sparco^

- Never paint the rims : What about black & chrome
- Never use a widebody : Some look very very good. eg the "Race-style kits"
- Never use a wing in a hatchback: I only use the LEX 42 spoiler, 'cause it's the lowest on a hatchback
- Always put decals: A clean car can look amazing too.

I agree with the rest

LMAO at the Richard simmons pic!

Heres my tips. Only use the ace and snyper kit for golfs. The others look big and ugly.

Here's my tip:
Use whatever kit you want. The only person who has to like it is you.

Agree

But here're my tips: never use spinners, never change stock tail lights in Skyline, never use SportGlow, StreetRay and Amped tail lights (they look awful IMO). About lvl3 brakes and scoops: use them, if you like them

I like them, so I use

Yes, this is a matter of taste and you can't argue about it...

@Sparco: What's wrong with painting the rims? I painted my rims gold for my Subaru, and some black and chrome on SUV's and other cars...

Roofscoops on a car are ugly, but in real life they have a purpose in the game they don't so just don't use it unless you want to make a rally car.

The guy who started this thread has a lot of nerve.

Haven't you figured out that all of us have different tastes??? Geeez!!!

This thread is quite stupid yeah. You cant give tips about cars. Actually. patrickman gives tips how he likes his cars. But we dont give a firetruck! If he just make cars how he likes them himself, this thread would never existed. The fact is, you cant be a beginner. Everyone develops a taste (about cars for example) at age 4.

vellu · Post by **vellu** » 03 May 2005, 13:36

True, but in general people don't like roofscoops, spinners, cf bodykits etc. Some do, most don't. So for a beginner trying to get regocnition in the showroom it's good to know what to avoid atleast.
