幹他媽!
congrats kimmi! car looks great ![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
the front & sides look really nice. i'm not entirely sure the color on the rear bumper flows. but, the most important thing is that you are happy with it and dig it.
congrats.

Love the Vertex kit but not a fan of the rear paint I would have more closely matched the proportions of the front bronze,,,you need to spray a flat clear coat on the bronze that would give more contrast and match the wheels better... man I would love to say it all looks good but the rear is really buggin me,,, that much paint makes it look heavy...just my opinion,, again love the vertex,,,It needs the canards(if you bronzed them it would look like the joker,,, "why so serious???")

^that looks better than the way it is now just my opinion, but i love the kit thought, it looks good. It don't matter what we think though, its your car, do what you want with it.

One Shot One Kill
i bet it's chrism's idea! the car's got a reverse mustache!
edit: at 1st, i honestly almost threw up, but then looking at it again, it grows on you...
there is something off with rear, color is okai, it's just the paint... i can't quite grasp it, but it has to do with the initial ugly impression, i believe somehow the painted area clashed with the contour of the car+kit, nothing a little more design work won't fix...
look into the way the paint touches the light, and how it ends in the back, and how the paint's angle flows from the rim. it seems it would look better if something was done from the rear bumper's painted region to the rims. and allow the paint to naturally finish instead of blocked off by the bumper/light.
i personally believe a painting of the trunk will make the back look gorgeous, go kim for being soo daring!
EDIT 2: i just realized, everywhere the car's got an oval feel to it, and the paint scheme in the back is acute geometric shape, think tat is also one of the reason it clashed with the car.

i think it looks sexy.....and its not entirely my idea...takes a secure person to pull of some wild colors and i think it came out great!
