Default Someone with a Veloster, do this :P

So, I was on the Veloster.org forum and was thinking about ideas to make the Veloster look even more cool and came up with this in a photochop..



I just realized today, because the styling of the Turbo V's bumper that I wont be able to do it (considering I get one) wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...







I think this look turns the somewhat funny 'bucktooth' into a real aggressive front end. Would be really easy to do with vinyl or plasti-dip..

I would do that. That plus a lip would be pretty awesome.

What do you expect my answer to be? Yes, you're right in thinking that.

haha HKC!!



the EVO front look + a diamond-lok lip and it would look amazing.. even better than the turbo front in my opinion.. too bad it can't be done on the turbo front end.. o well!! I'll figure out something interesting to set it apart!!



it LOOKS like the turbo front bumper will be a candidate for the diamond-lok front lip but we will see.. Within a few weeks of getting it (again if all goes well) I would like to make sure mine will already be set apart from the rest.



with HD lip

Spread the black a little more and you've got an unpainted black plastic bumper cover. Cool = the same look as "can't afford paint." Next somebody will think it's awesome to have (only) a rusted hood . . . oh, wait

Styles do change, I was never that offended by black bumpers. Black > chrome.

Just put eyelashes on the front lip, now that'd be a goatee. to remember.





I wonder what curb feelers count as... ear hair?

Some of the guys on Veloster.org have done this........and I hate it! It looks like a giant hole in the front of the car. The reason I started to hate Mazda looks so much was all that black plastic in the front. Guess it's all in opinion, but the front of mine will certainly be keeping its pretty blue bucked teeth.
