I am toying with the idea of spraying the bonnet white, maybe not all but just a strip down the middle. Or following the contours of the edge of the bonnet to a curve meeting at the grill. Then I thought about stripes? (not sure about these)
Basically what I am after is advise/ideas.. whole bonnet? part of the bonnet? stripes? and do I carry it on to the bumper? colour? or leave it well alone...
Feel free to abuse me for even thinking of this (it may ruin the front of a fantastic looking car), but as I say I am just toying with the idea at the moment.
many thanks
Ok so yesterday I was sat staring at the front of my IS.

P. Lindblom bought the carbon bonnet & followed the contours of the bonnet & painted the outsides same as the car, leaving centre bit carbon, Looks the buisness on his motor, but he has the legana front bumper with carbon centre peice.

I like the sound of that! I would love the Legana bumper, but I think I have to join a rather long queue to get hold of one. There are replicas obviously but would rather not go down that route if I could help it.
I would like my car to be a bit diferent, could even get the wheels powder coated white! and a massive touring car style spoiler! (I'm getting a bit carried away now!)

Marsdendean I think his looks good because its a silver car. The only way i think it would work, would be the middle bit being white, and it still may not look right!
as in just over the bulge in the middle?
I would be worried too that I do something and it doesnt look right and spend more money on getting the bonnet resprayed agin!

Lexusboy If it was to be change it should go silver, but your need to use this silver in other area's of the car to keep the car uni formed this is only my opinion.
I sure someone can photo bucket this colour combi for you
sounds good! That would be really good if someone could do that for me, I'M useless when it comes to that sort of thing.
BTW thanks for everyones input so far!
