The colors would depend on your overall scheme. If it's Apex Silver with black wheels, etc, then I'd say black decals.

Only you can decide how subtle (or not) you want it. I remember a black "Predator" Evo in a magazine that looked very tasteful in my opinion, and it had Red/Grey "Erion Racing" style stripes on it. I'll see if I can find a pic.

Here it is:


Do whatever you want with your car, as long as it makes you happy.

Ignore the haters, not everyone wants to drive a monochrome car.
^ That car actually does not look that bad.... except lol@the headlights. And yes your right its my car not other peoples.

It's just a different level of exposure.


AND, the OP didn't say JACK about manufacturer decals. He said graphics. So don't assume.

He later elaborated that he wanted F&F style graphics... Maybe that includes manufacturer decals, maybe it doesn't. Maybe he wants a giant statue of liberty turned sideways on his car. Who cares? It's HIS car.
^ Yes your right FERNO. I do believe i can add small decals and it could actually turn out really great. Considering my car has a bodykit on it already though it would probably be in the best nature too go with F&F style graphics... I'm not talking about adding Manufacturing decals... because most of you are right i (Personally) would not add that... but some kind of unique design would be cool. I'm not saying i would never put manufacturing decals... i guess it all depends on the situation.

People can hate all they want... SOME.. not all..but SOME already do just because i decided to add a kit... but you know what..? I pay for my insurance not them. once they pay me too drive my car then ill remove it.

Thanks for the inputs & pictures!

Sounds like a good idea to me if subtlety is the goal.

I feel like when I was a kid and playing old school Need for Speed and what not, making my car with the crazy sun bursts, 2 tones and decals. I was cool. But unless you race the car, it just makes you look like a fool IMO and takes away from the beauty of a plain evo

the beauty of an evo?! what the hell are you smoking, cuz i want some....

the evo is not pretty, its a box with a turbo'd motor and a great awd system... the car itself is not something I would classify as a sexy car...

its a freakin standard lancer shell, lol

cars like a NSX - lotus exige - GTR - Noble - Aston Martin roadster - are examples of a sexy / beautiful cars....

The evo just has the powertrain and a bullet proof motor that can withstand the abuse..

Sorry for the off topic post


To the original poster - if you like it, rock it

Paint it green and change your name to Brian Spillner.

No but seriously, some mild graphics would be sweet.

I think the GTR is by far one of the ugliest performance cars I can recall ever seeing.

The best car with graphics is the OLD AMS DRAG EVO WITH THE FIGHTER THEME.... the only problem with that is, you better have the power to back some of that up....

If you think the nissan GTR is ugly, I would hate to see what you say about your own car, lol.

Don't get me wrong, i love the evo, always will however to say that it is a beautiful car is a joke, most people don't even like sitting in them. its the rawness the car brings to the table in the performance section why we love the evo... you didn't by the evo cuz of its looks, you bought it so you can go kick the crap out of anything on the street stock for stock..
