Could the seller find a sh!ttier camera!

How does he expect to sell when pics are that bad!

I think it looks quite nice, apart from the bit at the back where he didn't really think about where the black needed to stop and where the white needed to start.

I have got a black roof on My VR4.


But the rest of the car is black as well.

Boom Boom!!

I suppose it could be worse - black with a white roof....

Damn that's horrible, what did the poor car do to him to deserve that sort of abuse.

That, well it *should* work - There are a few cars where above the doors is painted black, and it works well.

But on that Legnum it just doesn't sit right. I guess it's because the bodyshape isn't suitable. It's hard to get a clean 'break' in the colour along the car's lines, witness the boot.

It'd probably work better on a saloon?

Yeah thats the main problem, finishing it up at the end of the car, the facelift lights are a little bit further up so it might work better on one of them, but I think you're right Kieran, the Galant is a better option for a black roof.

i think if you had a silver galant and painted just the roof black it would look good, but you would have to have a bodykit etc and go down the touring car look line

Then carried on painting the rest you'd have a respectable looking car!

lol! I think it would work well on a silver galant as well, not sure it it would work on a white one.
