Think the Mud flaps here look good on the car? Of course wont be touching the ground just their to see what looks like.

Top is Sun Visor from my 88 Starion and a Sun roof. Bottom is from my 89 Conquest Without sunroof, Just thought was interesting. Also note the Chrome mount vs the plastic one. The mirror is alot larger on the Conquest Plus has lights but my star didnt seam to have any wiring in it for that but not a big deal.

Red + Blue = Spiderman.

 

Paint the hood vents black and use the black grille. Please.

 

And ditch the mud flaps or shorten them WAY up and add a curve in them?

Like I said I would Shorten the mudflaps, How exactly not sure yet. But they are a functional Item, the rear area gets alot of junk on the paint without mud flaps. Do a few Burnouts at the drag strip and some runs then try to get that tar off the paint is not fun.

Later I think once i get the car running I will add some gloss to the hood so its not flat black. Or repaint the hood to all matching Red. I dont like flat black not easy to clean.

 

As for Colors of Superman.....

I think the whole car would look better without the 83 hood... Let me help you out and put the it on my car :lol: I prefer the black grille but its all about what you think looks good.

Well the hood has sentimental value to me since its almost all that's left of my first car (83 Starion). I couldn't save it from the crusher but at lest saved that.

As for the grill its easy to switch maybe Ill change that depending on my mood lol Like a mood ring for my car!

Rule of thumb:

Stick to one main color, and a shade (black, white & any shade of grey in between) as a trim color. Very risky to make 2 colors for trim and main body.

Its like two toning an interior with 2 colors. Looks cheap and ricey. Dont take it to your offense, use the feedback positively (some people just take it the wrong way).

 

If you want people to say WOW to your car, follow the advice of others.

If YOU want to say WOW, follow your own advice.

Well My decision is Black grill and leave the blue 83 inserts since my engine is blue for alot of things also. Plus makes them really stick out which I like. With a Huge IC, Opened up front IC inlet, Fog Light Covers, 83 hood with blue inserts plus a over sized mits symbol up front (from a Montero) I really Like the look its different but not totally different. For the Mud Flaps I will probly install them in the summer I have daily drove these cars long enof that I have really hated all the dirt that gets behind the rear tires and for when I drag raced all the tar..... which is a super pain to get off. Maybe Will look just soso but I dont think bad.

 

Thanks everyone for the opinions but like Mike said "If YOU want to say WOW, follow your own advice." And all I can say is every time i see the front of the car I think just that lol. Really love the Stock Starquest look, and think this is just improves on it (Stock has too small mits symbol, too small IC that is at an angle, and the opening is too small. plus the 83 coup gives it more agressiveness.
