I think the one above in white with black trim is the best looking one yet that you've done in the 3D designer.

Its because the black trim slims the car. Normally (like on my 5th gen) I perfer the ground effects to be body colored, but on this rendering it seems to make the car look fat and bulky (no offense lol) so the slimming effect really helps.

It still seems like there is too much fender distance between the upper grill and bottom of the fascia on the front. Its probably too much trouble, but I wonder how just simply enlarging the upper grill a bit would look? Or maybe raising the lower center air intake and fog lights a bit could remedy this?

Am I the only one who thinks this? lol.

I hope you can come up with soemthing appealing for the sides...some kind of indention that runs down the side to give it more visual interest. Once you do that, the car will be complete!

I see some Ferarri influence, and some NSX in the back. You certainly have way more talent than I. My only critique is the quarter panels. Too flat, not enough curvy edges in my opinion. I like where you're going w/ it, but it just needs a little more.... subtle curves in the quarters. The 5th gen has hips, and that ties the whole thing together.

After multiple requests along a consistent theme of "more cow bell"... I revised the coke bottle effect on the side. I moved the "pinch" inward even more and put a lot more curve in that area, as well as more curve heading towards the back fender. Hopefully you can see the difference in these snapshots. The top fender line from the front of the door going back to the top of the rear fender was also reworked.

After most commenters made the observation that the C pillar area "looked odd" or similar words to that effect, I moved the lower back corner of the quarter panel window forward a couple of inches to add more area to the C pillar.

I also figured out how to make and use texture tags so I was able to add the black stripe along the top of the side rocker panels and I added that feature to the top of the front splitter (there was just an empty gap there before). I also created the hood gap around the edge of the hood which you can see nicely in the white renderings.

I still need to get the door handle done and figure out what kind of side scoop to put on the side but hopefully this reworked side looks better to everyone.

Okay! FINALLY I've come up with a side scoop design that I think fits the overall style of the car (you have NO IDEA what a pain in the butt it was to figure out how to make it look like this and put it into the side of the car). I also put a simple pull-up door handle on just to have something there; I'll work on getting the original style done.

Here are multiple views from different angles so you can see how it looks. And for those who like black cars....I've also included a special image at the end.

I know it was hard getting them in the first place but is there a way to curve them a bit to fit the wheel arch? Being straight like that just looks like an afterthought and in my opinion does not flow well with the curves in the rest of the design.
