Default To SVO or To Not SVO?

Hey guys with my wrx front bar and the rest of my body kit nearly ready to spray, alot of people are telling me that i should go SVOstyle on my car and do the whole bottom half off the car on grey. Or should i stick with spraying it red?
What should i do?

actually the SVO look might come up alright on your car. I have seen a couple of red SVO's cruising around and i think theres one for sale in westmeadows opposite the fish and chip shop. Anyway i reckon that would look awesome, got my vote on the red/grey.

Svo style would really suite it, especially with the kit. Have a look at EASPRINTS car, looks unreal with the 2 tone.

Is your car an SVO?

This is what I ask before painting.

Do it SVO style. You dont have to match paint that way.

doors have skins, not trims, just paint the doors as u would a panel on any other part of the car (except bumpers they need an additive to stop them from cracking when they flex)

The SVO kit has a trim that sticks onto the bottom of the door.

SVO kit?

Steves MMM kit has those, but also needs the side skirts for the front and rear 1/4 bits.
