I'm thinking one word when I saw this "Fugly".

I don't think the paint looks bad... With everything greyed out, i think it is a bit much... get rid of the tinted tail light and head lights and throw some different wheels, I think it would look good.

frosty.

other than the headlights and tail lights being ruined it looks nice actually

I agree....and the red exhaust tips are no good.

doesn't look matt black though more of a grey

If I was going to put $5800 in a GT, I certainly would not use it to paint the car flat black. But you have to admit, it is one of a kind.

I'd have to reach deep into compassion to call that thing okay looking.

Minus the red mufflers, it's not that bad at all, I've seen worse.

Like this one...





And to think I like green cars, just not that one!

It just needs to make it right

^ Same here, why the frosted lights? I really think it looks good, don't know if I would blow that kinda money on paint, so why not didn't he spend a little more to make it right?

If it would be me I would lose the frost lights, red tail pipes, trade out for GXP diffuser & oem 19s. What it really needs is lowering springs, properly smoke flashers, and add some 20-inch black wheels. Even has GXP bumper ready to go.

That's a fine example of green & black gone wrong.
HERE'S AN EXAMPLE of green & black done right.

AS far as the car in the thread's topic goes, I'd have to say that the mileage and future fixes would steer me away from that G8 unless I was desperate.

I'm pretty happy with my flat look, but would never have red exhaust tips

The flat silver is not too shabby. But in black, it just looks like it was primed.

Do you have a build thread or some more info on your car?

This is mainly the cosmetics side, not the performance side.
