Advan Model 5 Cage Match: Synth19 vs. MikeC_587

[s4play]

I think in this match - I really like the silver car more (not because he's a local) but the 17/18 seems to fit better.

On a side-note have you ever though of going black upper roof? Your GT mirrors are so sick the black roof might flow better?

I don't even have the mirrors and have been thinking of a black roof just to change things up.

i like em both, but not a huge fan of the wheels on the IOP

I love these in 18/19... as it seems prime does too!! 70% / 30% split

Nah, I dont think the roof needs to be black to "match" the mirrors. I think it matches great with the other black and CF accents. Going with a black roof is.... well... too predictable.

I vote for Synth19 with the 17/18 setup

Surely one of THE nicest NSX anywhere!!

lol! I doubt it, but now it's about being stubborn! The black roof were originally meant on the early coupes and the NSX-R, correct? With my car being a targa, I frankly think the car will look weird with black pillars and the targa top removed. I think this is the reason why Honda started to color match the roof/pillars once the targa was released. Someone correct me if I'm wrong with my theory/assumption.

Secondly, I think some of ya'll are too convincved that dark side mirrors need a black roof. This is what I call the NSX-R Bias. I think the CF mirrors can be pulled off with other accent pieces. So I'm sticking with keeping the mirrors unpainted and CF. It looks fantastic IMHO.

just sayinnnnnnnnn





Roof though is CF, but you would never know from this angle.....

[nsxot1c]

I agree, but something about the black roof targa or non targa. I think your car looks amazing don't get me wrong. And the fact that you haven't done the black roof make it stand apart a bit as well.

But IMO the NSX looks like a fighter jet and with the roof being black it just lets the glass all blend in that much better.

2 different styles, both look awesome

911 Styling is very much different from the NSX but I like the fact that you're fighting til the end!! hahaha
