I suppose, if you have some sort of 'red' theme going somewhere in the color scheme.

I would just remove my front plate for shoots, but the plate has vibrated against the front bumper's paint since I got it so it looks eh.

Quick question for you SW tC owners, what are your thoughs about that front bumper center decal (bluebatmobile.net) but instead of in black for that Evo look, have it in white to match the paint? Cheaper than painting, and covors license plate holes.

would the white of the decal actually match the white of your car?

i think it would be a good idea to prevent some rock chips that may fly up to the front bumper, but other than that (unless you matched the overlay paint to the car) the look of BB "hitler stash" just doesnt do it for me. but to each their own

would look tacky imo.
if you find a good body shop they could fill them and might be able to blend the paint so you dont have to get the whole bumper repainted

Yeah, see finding a good bodyshop is hard as heck for something like this. In Cali, they all switched to that water based paint or something so they said "we'd have to paint the whole bumper and it'd be around $375".

I'll keep looking though. How much do you think it'd cost to fill and spot blend? I was playing with the idea of a half "hitler stash" so it kind of looks like the bottom grill section of the bumper is larger...idk.

you could also just buy bumper plugs and have them paint matched or just try to purchase 2 small vinyl circles to cover the holes

yea but he said he will have scratches from the plate. My bumper underneath the plate is all scratched up from where they put it on and i guess just the wind. Even though on white the scratches will probably be less noticeable.

I'll add a shot from this last weekend at Scion Pinups.
Thinking of getting different side skirts next year, any ideas on what would go good with kaminari?

good idea to switch up the sideskirts. im not fond of the kaminari ones.
id say get 5A skirts, but it think those are too subtle for the dramatic look of the body kit

OEM or RS1 would look great with the Kami kit.
