Need paint ideas

[LittleBeast]

Go ahead and do the wrap I am interested in how it will turn out, but please do not do the "trendy" skulls thing, please, just mean flat black, do the skulls in something that is cheaper and less permenant. Sounds good can't wait to see the end result.

Oh and the easiest way to get a meaner looking VX is to do the easy $200 suspension lift and buy some larger tires.

haha.. JAMAS used mine as an example nice
if someone else is paying for it by all means go for it (and let the proton shine through the eye sockets )

Riff will remember this, but when I got my VX, Proton was the last color on my list of preferences. Now I can't imagine having any other color. I will admit that the wife and I have tossed around the idea of flat army green or maybe a flat deep charcoal. I have enough pin stripes, and as Billy mentioned, "battle scars" that it just isn't worth waxing anymore. Of course, mine is becoming more and more trail rig, so I have my own destiny to follow....(enter star wars theme or some other epic theme music)
Sorry Dub, but IMHO I think skulls are tacky, like weekend Harley riders and their bandannas and leathers. Come up with your own unique design. Think of something original...maybe go the current "urban" route and make it a Honey Nut Cheerios VX Not sure if ya'll have that goin round where you are, but the thing that "urban" crowd is doing is putting Caprices and Crown Vics on 26" wheels, lifting em, and then decorating them with various brands. In my area I have seen John Deere, Skittles, Star Burst, Coke Zero, Sprite, Lucky Charms, Fruity Pebbles, Gary Coleman(RIP) and a handful of sports teams. These aren't cheap spray paint jobs, these are complete decal kits and nice paint. The rims alone cost more than the car, I don't even want to know what the paint and decals cost.

No matter what, its your VX, just remember that the proton is one of 479 ever made!!!! Who cares what strippers say, or anyone else for that matter. Do what makes you happy

I really don't consider you the arbiter of style, good taste, or tacky...

I was gonna link to a pic of that SWEET bumper you made as an example, but it seems you've removed all the pics (evidence) from your gallery......

Since it was indelibly emblazoned into the minds of most who will read this, it matters not, since what has been seen can never be unseen...

Wow, it looks like "Motto Metal 909 Frenzy" among VXers... I have a set of those in R20 sitting in my garage too...
As to the topic - maybe a couple of links from Mother Russia will give you fresh ideas..
