A few shots of my Fervent Red Prestige

Here are some photos of my car since I had the roof covered with black vinyl. Also had the bonnet and front bumper clear wrapped for stone chip prevention, (totally necessary!).
Removed the 'S' from the back too, I think it makes the car look a little wider and lower because your eye isn't drawn up to, what I think, was a rather oversized badge.
Seriously thinking of painting the brake callipers red as well...hmmm...hope it's as easy as it sounds!! Add that to still wanting to fit lower mesh grille to the front and possible rear spoiler...then my car won't look like the other two red Kizashi's in town...
Hope the pics aren't too large...I'm not very up on how to upload yet...
Just checked them... not great quality, sorry, will do better next time!

It looks good. A pity the old North Sydney Bears aren't still around you could almost be there mascot with those colours.

Thanks guys. IshaanIan, the splash guards were Suzuki aftermarket, which you probably knew, didn't think of colouring them as I like the touch of black down low.....to me it kind of, visually, lowers the centre of gravity...an offset to the tinting and roof black.
Got me thinking though.......

but they don't even look like the black kizashi's paint do they not come in the colour of the car?
Interesting what you say about lowering the centre of gravity and offsetting the black upper body have you considered getting the side skirts and molding and having that chrome bit ghosted out? Cause believe me, I've got the splash guards on mine too and they really enhance the cars stance and look but they don't seem to be doing them in this state (perhaps its just me:P )

As far as I know the guards do not come coloured.
I did give brief thought to having them painted but I still feel they kinda please me better in black....
The sideskirts are pretty nice but our garage is narrow so the door doesn't open too far and my leg already hits the door sill every time I get out...they'd make it even wider... Oh, the problems we face...! :/

CoCo, I like those splash guards. Where did you get them and what did they cost you? BTW your whip is very nice.

Hey jono6406, thanks for your comments. Sorry I haven't responded sooner...been a bit busy...!
The splash guards were from the Kizashi accessories list, not cheap, but anything to do with a car is expensive in Aus!!!
Guessing you can still get them in the US?

Happened to be able to stop for a quick meeting with one of the local Kizashi yesterday...(two out of three red..and one black in my town!)
Sport AWD vs Prestige (with a couple of add ons)
