914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Post Pic's of Black cars W-W/O sail vinyl

Posted by: iamchappy May 23 2006, 12:46 PM

My car is going soon to the body shop for paint I am looking for pictures of black cars with and without sail vinyl. I am undecided as to the look I am after, it may be with or without or without with the lower chrome trim. confused24.gif

Without seems to make the car look mean. With, breaks up the lines and roof and is stylish.
Without, I think a painted roof pulls it together nice.

I always (thought) I liked the vinyl, until I bought one that had it removed.

Now I don't think I could ever go back to vinyl again!

(I do still like the bottom chrome strip to break it up a bit).

I think black cars look great without as long as you do the top as well. Or if you leave it you should leave the top alone too. I lean towards the without look.

if you have gt flares, no/blacked out trim and painted sail panel makes it look like a completely different car.

it's the visual difference between pedestrian and bad-a$$.

Posted by: tdsmoonchild May 24 2006, 06:13 AM

What do you do to the back of the sail panel if you do not want to use the chrome? Cut the seam and weld together? Any pics?

black it out?

Posted by: iamchappy May 24 2006, 06:58 AM

I am going to experiment a little with this, I have two tops one I will paint smooth, the other I will leave as original.
I am going to pick up some thin sheet magnet material and glue the sail vinyl to that
leaving overhang to still tuck under the trim. If it works I can have it both ways.Attached Image

That car looks great with those wheels and flares.

I would like to add this one.
One owner, untouched original apperance group, with vinyl and silver trim.
I sure like some of the painted sails. very sweet....scott

OK I'll bite. With loose vinyl sails and bra; before. Going to go without vinyl on restore, but keep all the trim intact- I like the separation of the targa bar that way. Somehow makes the car look fatter.
Saw a picture somewhere where the targa bar was painted with 3m Splatter Paint-looked really good. I am also pondering using a "hammered" finish.

The Black and Chrome look is what I am after, My fuchs with polished paddles, chrome trim, bumpers and chrome fuel door. I will paint the sails keep all the trim. I love everyones black cars, thanks for posting the pictures. And to think I was going to paint it Signal Orange.
