Need more angles mate.

The work looks professional and it looks good, couldn't bring myself to do it to my own car though, the two tone split top/bottom like that has never done it for me. Most certainly unique though :cool:

You need the security window/door stainless mesh that's coated black for the letterbox. Atm the grill says "P-plate budget, L-plate workmanship". Once that's sorted I think the whole auora of the car will jump 50%. Though about some black rims and black/silver or black/gold plates? Don't get me wrong the car looks the goods, I'm just trying to be constructive to help you get the finishing touches so AMC can boast about having another cool looking ride onboard :cool:

Yeh Man!

Very Unique! I especially like the teal colour chosen for the bottom half.

Would like to see a shot of the rear end too... (of the car that is)...

Oh, btw... This is what it'd look like with Para's!

Right (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-MITSUBISHI-1997-2003-DIAMANTE-RIGHT-HEADLIGHT-Japan_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33710QQihZ016QQit emZ260231572229QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD2V)

Left (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/JDM-MITSUBISHI-1997-2003-DIAMANTE-LEFT-HEADLIGHT-Japan_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33710QQihZ018QQit emZ280219215258QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWD2V)

Are they the same as verada paras? $65 shipping though, probably to expensive.

i'll admit i am undecided at the moment, will look better with some parras. definitately needs those big black rims and i reckon a chrome TJ mitsubishi diamond in the grille. from a professional point of view and only seeing the photos that paint looks pretty bloody good to me. keep up the good work.

im prob the first to disagree. im sorry but it looks wierd imoa may look different in flesh. but its not what i think but what u think.

The chrome window surrounds need to go!
The pinstripe needs to be the focus of the car (IMO)
The doorhandles with the chrome strip and the window surround take away from the pinstripe.
Great colors too btw good to see someone doing some really extensive mods

I've love to see a Magna with black instead of the green ;)

But that looks really good, much better than I was thinking. Congrats mate!

looks awesome man, top quality paintwork by the looks of things.

only problem that comes to mind - when it comes time to sell, is this going to be a problem?

Also: grille looks tops!

well every person who has seen it in the flesh, has loved it, so im taking it as a good sign that it wont be any harder to sell if not easier,


im prob the first to disagree. im sorry but it looks wierd imoa may look different in flesh. but its not what i think but what u think.
thanx for the opinion, i personally think it looks good in the pics but better in the flesh. but hey not everybody likes the same things. i lost many nights of sleep trying to make a decision on it, but i just ended up taking the gamble and doing somthing that is different.

parra's new rims and i was thinking the small ralli art badge [/// ///] like on the COLT's grills in one corner of my grill
